Last night I again watched Kenneth Branagh's 1989 rendition of Shakespeare's Henry V. It was just as good as the first time I watched it years ago.

Has anyone else been roused to arms by the speeches in it?

I've seen his Hamlet, Merchant of Venice, Othello & Richard III but not this one.

The opening gives me goosebumps, as does the end of the battle.

I adore Branagh, and this film only added to my admiration. Unfortunately, my copy of it has disappeared somewhere in the abyss of my college apartment.
