History
Plays
Kenneth Branagh's award-winning version of Shakespeare's classic story of conflict, courage, honour and heroism.
"Laurence Olivier triumphed as director and star of a highly stylized 1944 version of Shakespeare's patriotic chronicle. Kenneth Branagh does likewise in this 1989 British production, shown on Masterpiece Theatre, which etches a more grittily realistic view of war and the burdens of leadership. The story opens in 1415 Britain, where the young King Henry V (Branagh) is pressed to assert his legal claim to the French throne by invastion. In the bloody battles that follow, Henry quiets doubts about his youthful abilities with mature decisiveness as he leads his army 'once more unto the breach.' This film introduced by Alistair Cooke, won an Oscar for costume design"--TV guide.
