[LadyAmaltheaUnicorn]

Good luck with that, especially if you have to do it in French with the accent :)

Is there a name for the thing all the men are wearing on their shoulders? Besides necklace obviously.

[LadyAmaltheaUnicorn]

They're called "Livery collars", they have unique designs that signified a persons position/office.

It was sort of like a badge

You have witch craft in your lips if that doesn't pick up a girl i don't know what will

I love him in that crown, with his hair on his forehead...I adore this scene and also love when he says "here comes your father"....haha - things haven't really changed in time. Cute scene and ends dramatically. Love the way he takes her hand and then sounds so manly and in control of the kingdom. Love Jacobi's last lines...beautifully delivered and so poignant.

HERE COMES YOUR FATHER! :-S

Queen Isabel is meant to speak Henry's last words. Interesting choice.

@TheKygar exactly..

If I ever start to dislike the French, I just watch this video.

Thank God Branagh's version deleted the bit with him and Burgundy at the end. I've always thought the sex jokes after such a romantic scene were a bit... off-putting. Although they were probably funnier in Shakespeare's day.

@skip8619 They are called "chains of office," actually.

[TheKygar]

waaah! Where's Queen Isabel??? Anyway is the epilogue guy the voice of the haunted mansion ride at disney world?? If not, he really sounds like him...Anyway I love how Kenneth Branagh can just make it easy to understand that old english stuff...

And then divorced...very sad.

This was the first place I ever saw Emma Thompson and I have been totally in love with her ever since.
