The precision of historical facts is not the purpose of this great movie as much as depicting the loneliness and heartlessness in being a powerful king, rising from a very weak situation inherited from his father. For example, to highlight this, in the movie the king's brother Thomas is dead before Henry V becomes king. In reality, Thomas dies in battle only a year before Henry's in 1422. Another example is the character Falstaff, who didn't actually exist in reality, but is a compendium of different historical figures.
