EXT
Brian Blessed (Actor / plays Duke Thomas Beaufort of Exeter) interview SOT:
BB - I was one of the last to see Henry V but I feel its the finest film I've ever seen / it's a tour de force I love it
Q - Why?
BB - It has great humanity / rare to see 80 - 100 people in a film and get their backgrounds / Ken Branagh has been so generous in his use of camera to bring out the personalities of other people / no vanity with Ken Branagh / I get mad when people say school put me off Shakespeare / We fail Shakespeare / When you get Shakespeare right it has great reality
Q - Was it awkward that Kenneth was acting and directing but new to directing?
BB - He and I are very close / one was a bit concerned / you know on the very first day if it's going to be a turkey / from the first day you knew it was a winner / he's not like Orson Welles - he's different chemically but a great young director / it astonished me / didn't expect this work of art / he made everyone happy / he gives you freedom
Q - Was he able to control you all?
