Henry V, Pretty Darn Great

Rating: 10/10 (1 November 2019)

The King is a beautiful movie, and the story of King Henry V is great history. You couldn't ask for a better story and this movie does it justice.
Excellent cast (Chalamet, all grown up! Lily-Rose Depp, all grown up!), particularly the movie's writer and producer, Joel Edgerton, as Falstaff. Falstaff is not a historical character but a composition of several historical characters. (Yeah, he's Shakespeare's recurring favorite, along with his goat as incarnated in Henry VI's John Falstolf, who WAS a historical character). Everyone was just great, including Robert Pattinson as the doofus Dauphin. And Sean Harris, who is never not great.
This isn't Henry's entire life story, just the highlights. Loved it.
