Additional Information
Laurence Olivier brings to vivid life Shakespeare's KING HENRY V, the epitome of the ideal Christian king. After a youth misspent in frivolity and common diversions, Prince Hal ascends the throne only to find himself on the brink of war with France over land and title disputes. Betrayed by his own archbishop in ascertaining the validity of the claims, Henry has to prove himself not only to his enemies but to his own advisers and his people. He thwarts a plot to assassinate him, meting out a swift but fair justice. When the French, unable to take him seriously, refuse to send reinforcements to a town under attack by Henry's troops, England wins the battle easily, yet Henry is merciful to the vanquished town. Though they are badly outnumbered, Henry leads his troops with courage and fortitude into the final, decisive battle against his enemies. Though foreign films were not competing at the time, Olivier won a special Academy Award for directing, producing, and starring in the film. His classic production of Shakespeare's 1599 play is filled with pomp and pageantry, terrific acting, and robust battle scenes.

    Partisan but entertaining

    This is a simplified portrayal of Henry as a heroic king: all the bits of Shakespeare's play that cast him in a less-than-admirable light have been cut. However, as the film was released towards the end of the Second World War, the reason for showing Henry as a charismatic leader, successful in battle and who had right on his side is obvious. So it's a rather biased version but still a very entertaining film with the talented Laurence Olivier in the lead role.

  • A few marks that hopefully won't affect the viewing of this iconic movie. Bought for my son to compare it to the Brannagh version.
