Anybody else fond of Kenneth Branagh’s Henry V film interpretation?

Love it. Best film Brannagh’s ever made. I especially liked the casting of Derek Jacobi as the chorus.

I loved that movie! It was especially graphic showing how the knights were bogging down in the clay that had been reduced to muck. They couldn’t even drag their feet out of it!

Even have the soundtrack music to the St. Crispin’s Day Speech scene in an iPod “Psych Music” playlist.

Excellent! The Latin requiem at the end was very moving, the comic French scene between the princess and her attendant was charming, if a little precious. The death of Falstaff and the fall of Henry’s old group of roisters teaches a tough lesson about politics,

Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more . . . .
