Notes: Drabble originally written for [livejournal.com profile] angevin2, who requested 'something in the Great Big AU, featuring the Lancasters'. Title translates to 'Thus ever for traitors'. I realised the original post was locked and decided to repost it here with the rest.

It had taken Henry Scrope a good forty-eight hours to discover what was so peculiar about Harry Lancaster's latest house party. )

Hey all,
I just recently viewed Henry V for my Shakespeare Class. Interesting, I must say. Actually, a lot different than I had imagined.
Just wanted to know the general consensus on the Kenneth Branagh version of Henry V?
Do you think it stayed true enough to the play?
I sort of felt as though the film's treatment of Henry was a little less ambiguou and looked at him in a more sympathetic manner.
Also, did the movie follow the play exactly? As in, were there any lines left out? I looked for a directors note online, but couldn't seem to find anything.
Any thoughts would be great.
