HENRY V - Laurence Olivier - 1944 - Remastered - 4K

Henry the V by William Shakespeare (Film 1944) Laurence Olivier’s second Shakespeare film (following his role in Paul Czinner’s 1937 As You Like It) pushed adaptation of the Bard onto an entirely new plane. Fascinating not just for its approach to the text but also for its portrait of multiple facets of the British character, calibrated for explicitly propagandist purposes in the Second World War to be a call to arms as such formed a powerful reminder of what Britain was defending.
