The Queen's Speech

It is reported that Queen Elizabeth II, following a private screening of "The King's Speech," pronounced the film "moving and enjoyable."

We may now expect to see her remarks in advertisements for the film, something on this order:

"Powerful and Gripping!" Roger Ebert

"A momentous achievement!" David Denby

"Really got to me!" Oprah Winfrey

"Moving and enjoyable." Queen Elizabeth II

"King's Speech" producer Harvey Weinstein, asked if he thought the Queen's endorsement would help secure an Oscar for him, replied "Oscar? Hell, I expect a knighthood!"
