Ep. 2 Pt 1: Henry V on film 21st Folio Podcast

In this episode, we discuss two major film versions of Henry V: Kenneth Branagh's 1989 film in which he stars and Thea Sharrock's 2012 TV movie starring Tom Hiddleston, which was the final part of the Hollow Crown series. We discuss the differences in interpretations of the character of Henry V, the edits made to the text in each film, and how each film handles the Chorus.For more detailed show notes: http://www.seventh-row.com/2016/03/25/ep-2-henry-v-film/Editor's note: We had to re-record a few parts of this episode, especially when Alex Heeney is speaking to introduce the episode, so there is some disparity in sound quality.Your host: Alex Heeney (@bwestcineaste)Guests: Mary Angela Rowe (@lapsedvictorian)and Craig Ruttan (@crut).Editor and Sound Recordist: Cam White (@JediDusk)Follow the 21st Folio on Twitter @21stFolio and visit us online at http://seventh-row.com/21st-folio.This podcast is a subsidiary of Seventh Row (@SeventhRow), a multidisciplinary arts criticism publication.
