HENRY V - Laurence Olivier - 1944 - Remastered - 4K.mp4
King Henry V of England 👑 , with his sickly and weary small army battles a much larger army of the Kingdom of France led by Marshal of France Jean Le Maingre and Constable of France Charles I d'Albret.
The French army ⚜ was made up from the flower of French Princes , Lords and Knights 🏇
King Henry V and the English army won a great victory against all odds, slaughtering thousands of French getting stuck in the mud.
Marshal of France Jean Le Maingre was captured along with many notable nobles and Constable of France Charles I d'Albret got killed.
This is how today hollywood should make movies about medieval knights, each knight with lances, with squires, with coat of arms on banners, coat of arms on shields, coat of arms on tunics/cloaks and on the horse if podssile. Lords wearing their chain of office and stuff like that. The charge was very accurate and historically accurate armour of that time.
Today in most knights movies you see knights with thorn mail, charging with swords, no shields, no proper armour or coat of arms, they make knights look like bandits.

Shakespeare sure had a way with words...

It was in this version of Henry v that I grew fascinated with Shakespeare. I memorized this variation of the speech well that I used it as my piece for my oral communication class when I was in college... And I got a perfect score for this.

I agree you are so correct.
