    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      The Treaty of Troyes (1420) is shown as taking place a week or so after the Battle of Agincourt (1415). This is the result of cuts from William Shakespeare's text. The play does acknowledge that more time has gone by.
    • Quotes
      • [Addressing the troops]
      • King Henry V: And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by from this day until the ending of the world but we in it shall be remembered. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers, For he today who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother, Be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition, and gentlemen in England now abed shall think themselves acursed they were not here, and hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks, that fought with us upon St. Crispin's day!
    • Crazy credits
