The King's Speech, immediately after it won the Best Picture Oscar.

It totally deserved it.  It's fucking hard to make a movie about people talking and make it visually and emotionally engaging.  They did it, and they did it in spades.

And fuck Harvey Weinstein for cutting the "fucks" out for a PG-13 re-release.  One, the movie shouldn't have been rated R in the first place, and I'm including the "fucks" here.  Two, the "fucks" are actually pretty goddamn important to the fucking story!

I really hope the PG-13 version doesn't end up being the version everybody remembers, because the R version is pitch-perfect.
