      Henry V established Kenneth Branagh as one of the most gifted and versatile film artists of our time. Branagh wrote the screenplay, starred in, and directed the film to astounding critical and popular acclaim. With a marvelous cast, including himself as Henry V, Emma Thompson as Katherine, Derek Jacobi as the Chorus, Ian Holm as Fluellen, Paul Scofield as the King of France, Judi Dench as Mistress Quickly, and Robbie Coltrane as Falstaff, Branagh brings the play into contemporary times, adding a darker and harsher sensibility. Included here are Branagh's screenplay and introduction, and dramatic stills from the film.

    • No Fear Shakespeare Graphic Novels is a series based on the translated texts of the plays found in No Fear Shakespeare. The original No Fear series made Shakespeare’s plays much easier to read, but these dynamic visual adaptations are impossible to put down.

      Kenneth Branagh's much praised adaptation of HENRY V revolutionised Shakespeare in the cinema, giving a new youthful and contemporary energy to a well-known play and bringing it to a vast audience around the world. He has now directed and adapted MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, with a starry international cast that includes Denzil Washington, Emma Thompson, Michael 'Batman' Keaton, Ben Elton, Keanu Reaves as Don John, and of course Kenneth Branagh himself as Benedick. Lavishly illustrated with stills from the film, and with a foreword about the film and screenplay by Kenneth Branagh, MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING will bring exciting new dimensions to one of Shakespeare's most mature and sophisticated comedies, and serve as a lasting souvenir of the film.
