“All hail.”
In 15th-century England, Hal, Prince of Wales and future Henry V, revels in the freedom of the people's company, far from the stuffy confines of court. Circumstances beyond his control, however, compel him to reluctantly don the crown, transforming the reckless Hal into the solemn, duty-bound king. The King, a 2019 drama, strips the legendary monarch's ascension down to the bare essentials, focusing on the moral and psychological rigors of his transition from rogue to ruler.
