St. Crispin's Day Speech

Speaking of Shakespeare, about the same time that I saw Kenneth Branagh in Henry V, I came across David Gwillim's performances as Prince Hal and Henry V for the BBC Shakespeare productions. 

I watched and rewatched the films multiple times, which, back then, meant going to the university audiovisual department and "renting" a room with a television and VCR. 

I'm a fan!

More recently, I got a kick out of a compilation of Saint Crispin's Day speeches at Pinterest. 

For the speech AND Patrick Doyle's fantastic music, check out Branagh's version.
