...sleepwalking; Mama resignedly gets out of bed and lullabies the boy to sleep. When she returns to make love to her husband, she finds him asleep. When Malik crawls into bed between his parents, Father embraces him, and Mama is left awake and alone. In the film's loveliest scene, Malik sleepwalks out of his bed, down the stairs, out of the house, down the street, into the home of the little girl he fell in love with that day, and straight into her bed. Young lust has rarely been expressed so sweetly...

Through the translucent bower at stage rear we can see the sky swirling madly with birds...
MARVEL at the spectacle of soldiery and swordsmanship in the decisive battle of Agincourt! THRILL as the victorious monarch woos and wins the fair Katharine - in two languages! It is all here, and more (including some of the loveliest wordplay in English or French). No wonder the play's Chorus poor-mouths the restrictions of the stage and the absence of "things/ Which cannot in their huge and proper life/ Be here presented." And no wonder that the definitive Henry V is Laurence Olivier's 1945 film version...
