It's funny that Fluellen compares Harry to Alexander the Great off the fact that there is a river in both towns where they are born. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

King Harry's St. Crispin's Day speech instills the confidence in his soldiers that is needed prior to a war outnumbered 5:1. #e4070

Henry and Catherine's marriage might get a little awkward considering they can barely understand each other. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

When Fluellen torments Pistol it offers some comic relief from previous scenes. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

I'm curious to know what exactly it is about BB that the common people like so much. It takes us back to the ?: what is a good king? #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

I feel like we never truly get to see Bolingbroke's character until the end of Act V. Even then, there's really not much to him. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

It also amuses me that it takes Richard so long to realize he's a murderer 😐 you'd think he'd figure that out sooner... #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

It amuses me that Richard has trouble finding the cause of such a terrible dream. Maybe because he's got so much blood on his hands?? #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

At the end of Act IV, scene IV we can tell that the situation is rapidly slipping out of Richard's control. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

The dead Edwards of the York family become symmetrical with Margaret's dead Edward from the Lancaster family. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

Act II, scene iii reminds us that the effects of this power struggle effects more than just the noble characters. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

At this point, I'm curious to know why so many characters still fall under Richard's manipulation. #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

I wonder what Lady Anne will think about Richard's view on women. #wantonamblingnymph #e4070

[Alyssa Harding @ARHard4070]

Poor Clarence, he thinks his brother is sad to see him being imprisoned. Little does he know, it's Richard's fault he's in there. #e4070
