The time has come. This year’s Best Picture Oscar winner, ‘The King’s Speech,’](The King's Speech (2010) - Movie | Moviefone) is heading back to screens in a new, Harvey Weinstein-approved, PG-13 edition.
The Weinstein Company has issued a press release stating that their “family-friendly” version will hit screens on April 1, and will be the only version in theaters. (Meaning: If you didn’t see it yet, you can only see it on the big screen in all of its muted glory.)
TWC distribution head Eric Lomis says: “We are thankful to the MPAA for their wisdom and swift action in approving the release of ‘The King’s Speech PG-13’ release. The action enables those whom it speaks most directly – young people who are troubled by stuttering bullying and similar trials – to see it.”
Oh, the irony…
