Both Shakespeare's plays and film adaptations based on them contain numerous historical inaccuracies and anachronisms. Furthermore, this adaptation also deviates from the plays. The Jack Cade's rebellion, a major part of "Henry VI, Part 2", is omitted; Duke of Suffolk dies in the First Battle of St Albans when historically and in Shakespeare's play he was murdered on a ship; some lines are spoken by other characters or are addressed to characters other than in the play.
