Heinrich V. (1944)
England zu Beginn des 15. Jahrhunderts. Heinrich der Fünfte will ein Gesetz beschließen, das die Beschlagnahmung kirchlicher Schätze zur Folge hätte. Um das zu verhindern, und gleichzeitig Heinrich zu einen Krieg gegen Frankreich anzustacheln, legt der Erzbischof von Canterbury eine Finte: Er redet König Heinrich ein, dass dieser ein Erbrecht auf den französischen Thron habe. Heinrich lässt sich täuschen und zieht gen Frankreich. Dort trifft er schließlich bei Agincourt mit seinen 12.000 englischen Soldaten auf ein Heer von 60.000 kriegsbereiter Franzosen…
