Henry V (1989)
Kenneth Branagh's 1989 directorial debut. Mud and blood Agincourt instead of Olivier's pageantry.
Actor: Brian Blessed
Brian Blessed played Augustus in I, Claudius and Prince Vultan in Flash Gordon, and the volume of his delivery has become the thing he is best known for. He is a genuine mountaineer who has attempted Everest three times without supplemental oxygen, and trained as a cosmonaut in Russia.
