Three Standalone Movies That Secretly Feel Like a Trilogy"

I’ve been a bit unwell recently, so this have given me a bit of time to watch some movies to try and clear away the fog in my head and relaxe.

The King’s Speech (2010)

The King’s Speech is a film about King George VI and the famous speech he gave around the United Kingdom’s declaration of war, leading into World War II.

The movie runs through the abdication of his elder brother, him being thrust onto the throne, and his need to deliver a speech despite having a stutter.

This movie is an inspiring story about him overcoming his stutter to deliver a speech to the people of his country, with the help of an Australian speech therapist who had unconventional ideas.

This movie leads into the next one of the List

Darkest Hour (2017)

Darkest Hour is a story that shows how Winston Churchill became Prime Minister and delivered a speech to rally his nation in its defence, to prevent the invasion of the UK.

The movie shows Churchill’s fallibility, but also his strength. It also mentions some of his past failures. At the same time, it presents the central idea that leads into the final movie on this list.The movie is the rallying call for his nation — prompted not by listing the members of his political party who wanted to appease Nazi Germany, but by the will of the nation to hold out and never surrender.

Dunkirk (2017)

Dunkirk is the story of the rescue of the army that have been defending France from the German invasion; they are trapped at the town of Dunkirk.

These movies fit together as an unofficial trilogy, as they are stories that together tell the tale of the resolve of the people of the UK, how when a nation comes together being led by people even with their imperfections, then even those can have strength.
