Having read up on King George, his madness was understandable- he had lost several children. So losing a colony that would help with the debt the French Indian War accrued was just the last cup of tea
How is manic psychosis "understandable" as a reaction to your family members dying? If that was the case then all of England at the time would have been full of screeching lunatics. It's not until the King's courtiers find a doctor willing to actually strap the King down during his manic fits that he actually develops any dignity. At least he's not embarrassing himself constantly.
Even though he’s an obnoxious egomaniac, between his energetic charisma and his foppishly obsequious courtiers, you can’t help but love the good old king!
"obnoxious egomaniac" "energetic charisma" Aaaaand there you go missing the entire point of the movie. You're not supposed to admire his disease. He's a raving maniac (literally), what you think is a huge personality is literally just his symptoms. He was reportedly calm and reasonable (aka, Kinglike) when not having a manic fit.
Yeah, certain people really get off on manic episodes - they really enjoy the total chaos and danger and lack of any kind of normal restraint. You should probably stay away from cocaine, btw.

King George The Third wasn’t mentally incapacitated when he lost America. This film revolves around his 4 month incapacity in Nov 1788-March 1789. It would be almost 12 years from the end of this bout until he had another in 1801. He wasn’t permanently insane in the way he’s portrayed in America.
Megan Thomas for a while it was thought he had Acute Intermittent Porphyria (AIP) a non-photophobic type that causes acute episodes such as: mood problems, psychosis, digestive issues, spasms and even temporary paralysis. It causes odd coloured urine and can be hereditary, however the “his majesty’s urine is blue” thing may have been from the medicine he was prescribed that contained gentian extract, an alpine flower that has very deep, sapphire blue flowers. Bipolar is now thought to be very likely.
"14 motions and you call it mild? Now a days it is prescribed and called "GoLightly". But There is nothing Go Lightly about it. It should be called " Go a lot and Go some more"
Before you examine the body of a patient, Be patient to learn his story. For once you learn his story, You will also come to know His body. Before you diagnose any sickness, Make sure there is no sickness in the mind or heart. For the emotions in a man’s moon or sun, Can point to the sickness in Any one of his other parts. Before you treat a man with a condition, Know that not all cures can heal all people. For the chemistry that works on one patient, May not work for the next, Because even medicine has its own Conditions. Before asserting a prognosis on any patient, Always be objective and never subjective. For telling a man that he will win the treasure of life, But then later discovering that he will lose, Will harm him more than by telling him That he may lose, But then he wins.
Turns out, trying to appease the king was a bad idea. Better to manhandle him. Neville Chamberlain, please step aside for the British bulldog version of the king's doctor to come in, a Winston Churchill of a man.

I nearly flooded a parish with the tears of laughter 😂
I love the way the king feels reassured his pulse is so fast, not knowing that's a bad sign.
If the king is feeling reassured that his George iii heart is great didn't know that his heart was in pain got a couple or more years
@@jasonbaileystudent9088 lol probably but the film os cheesy as is.
The thinking is probably:
a powerful pulse = strong constitution
@@seanhuds229cheesy? The film is fkn brilliant
Lol he chastises the doctor for giving him too much medicine, then tells him the amount he was actually supposed to take wouldn't have been enough.
Maddening, isn't it? It's like he was not of sound mind when he said that...
@@nm7358 Good heavens sir! Are you questioning the faculties of the King himself? Its unconscionable!
In India patients behave the same way and not in a funny sense.

I love how the doctor diagnoses the king while looking through a keyhole 😂😵
It wasn’t the done thing to physically examine a gentleman…
"Ah! Baker, yes. A ninny, what-what."
😁
George: "How's the pulse?" Doctor: "It's very very fast!" George: " Good! Good!"
What what
They're both named George?

Superb acting through out the entire mov
Why do I find this scene so hilarious? I know it's a serious film, portraying the Kings descent into madness, but my God it's funny.
love this film. Should have won Pest Pic and Best Actor, hands down
Two cups of a laxative lol
If the real man was half this interesting he must have been a hoot to be around.

He’s all deferential until he hears “two glasses”.
King George suffered from temporary bouts of insanity, while 18th century doctors luxuriated in a state of hubris far beyond mere madness.
I said what what...!
Very good video What what!
An amazing king!!!

You'll be back, soon, you'll see
You'll remember you belong to me

You'll remember that I served you well
