Movie Haiku:1939: Hitler is about to march & you are President Roosevelt. Luckily Britain has the right King, but how to help him "man up"...? Murray excels as FDR in this intimate portrait which rights many of the wrongs of THE KING''S SPEECH. (Cinematic comfort food! Feh!) Jan--who knows a lot about the Windsors--loves this film; Rich--who knows less/cares less--likes it a lot too.
