A.K.A. Falstaff
“This movie was based on the play “Five Kings”. It was written by Orson Welles and condensed William Shakespeare’s “Richard II”, “Henry IV” parts 1 & 2, “Henry V”, the three parts of “Henry VI” and “Richard III” into one show. He produced the show in New York City in 1939, but the opening night, during which Part 1 was performed, was a disaster, and Part 2 was never put on. He revamped the show and revisited it in 1960. Again, it was not successful. However, this later production was used as the basis for this movie.” -https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059012/trivia/?ref_=tt_dyk_trv
