About This Movie

The Madness of King George is a 1994 comedy and drama film directed by Nicholas Hytner. Its leading cast includes Nigel Hawthorne, Helen Mirren and Ian Holm. It runs for 1 hour 47 minutes.

Synopsis

Aging King George III of England is exhibiting signs of madness, a problem little understood in 1788. As the monarch alternates between bouts of confusion and near-violent outbursts of temper, his hapless doctors attempt the ineffectual cures of the day. Meanwhile, Queen Charlotte and Prime Minister William Pitt the Younger attempt to prevent the king's political enemies, led by the Prince of Wales, from usurping the throne.
