It was NOT the swear words that made this a great film.

It’s such a great story.... they SHOULD have made it PG-13 to begin with. The F word adds NOTHING to the value of this movie.

One of the bright spots of the movie is when Logue tells him to spew a string of bad language and Logue encourages him on by saying, "And now the F word. Say the F word."

The King replies "Fornication!"

It brought a laugh. BTW, I loved this movie, even though I am a stickler about bad language. This story required it, however.

Funny thing, I don't remember the King saying "Bloody!" which (I think) was a well used English swear word of the era.
