A Question about the Music
The motif at the beginning of the opening credits is exactly the same tune, containing exactly the same words, as the prayer sung by the Archbishop of Canterbury (coincidentally played by Felix Aylmer as his distant predecessor was in this film) in Olivier's HENRY V. But since Sir William Walton wasn't given any kind of 'additional music' credit here I'm guessing this motif was not composed by Walton for the Shakespeare adaptation. Anyone know where it comes from?
