Quote #7
Lionel and Bertie remained friends for the rest of their lives.
As the final message in the movie tells us, Bertie and Lionel ended up becoming friends for the rest of their lives. This is especially incredible when you consider how strange it would have been for a king to hang with a commoner back in the 1930s.
Quote #8
LOGUE: Then your friend the Archbishop will ponce up and say, "Sir, is Your Majesty willing to take The Oath?" You say…
BERTIE: I am willing.
When Logue refers to the Archbishop as the king's "friend," he's being a bit sarcastic. What he really means to say is, "These people aren't really your friends, but I am."
Quote #9
LOGUE: You have such perseverance, Bertie. You're the bravest man I know. And you'll make a bloody good king.
