Subject:        Henry V and New War Films

In  a review of war films released near this Christmas, Frank Rich
notes: "But Mr. Jackson's trilogy has more going for it than its
spectacle and many classical allusions (a commonplace in all these
films, which all have some version of a St. Crispin's Day oration on the
eve of battle)."
