    It's a pure stage play at all. It is similar to Chinese Peking Opera. The narration of the film should be completely excerpted from the book. It is a bit of a headache to watch. After all, it is incompatible with the current movie style, but Lawrence Oliver is also a real artist....

    Lawrence's patriotic work to counteract the World War II military service started in the theater, went out for a circle, and ended in the theater. Taking advantage of the respective advantages of the theater and the greenhouse, the montage is natural and moving. Comparing Kenneth Hennessy V, you can clearly feel the difference in the director's choice of lines and paragraphs under different...

    Can't help but smile. The stage play is nested in the movie, and the alienation effect is remarkable, so I can't help laughing. The language of Shakespeare's play is put into stage performance, and it still sounds like poetry and music...

    The old color film focuses on meritorious deeds and political correctness. I can't empathize with the scheduling of war scenes. It should be very rare in those days. The dramatic part is very...

    Even for viewers who don't like Shakespeare's plays, watching Oliver's Henry V is still a wonderful experience. The opening is the funniest and most engaging, with Shakespeare instantly...

Henry V quotes

  • King Henry V of England: In peace there's nothing so becomes a man as modest stillness and humility. But when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger; stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with hard-favored rage; then lend the eye a terrible aspect; let pry through the portage of the head like the brass cannon; let the brow overwhelm it as fearfully as doth a galled rock Overhang and jutty his confounded base, swilled with the wild and wasteful ocean. Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide, hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit to his full height. On, on, you noblest English. Whose blood is fet from fathers of war proof! Fathers that, like so many Alexanders, have in these parts from morn till even fought and sheathed their swords for lack of argument. Dishonor not your mothers; now attest that those whom you called fathers did beget you. Be copy now to men of grosser blood and teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman, whose limbs were made in England, show us here the mettle of your pasture; let us swear that you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not; for there is none of you so mean and base, that hath not noble luster in your eyes. I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, straining upon the start.

  • King Henry V of England: The game's afoot: Follow your spirit and upon this charge cry, 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'
