I’m interested in the King’s Speech but it I think True Grit is better cinema in terms of big screen entertainment.

I don’t disagree, but often box office success doesn’t translate into Golden Globes or Oscars. The “Harry Potter” franchise has been a huge success at the box office, but has performed poorly at major awards. The public may not swoon over a stuttering King or lesbian ballerinas,but “The King’s Speech” or “Black Swan” may do well in winning awards.
