The producers apparently wouldn't pay for a proper Battle of Bosworth Field (they didn't think it mattered), so Corman mixed stock footage from the earlier Tower of London, close-ups of Price fencing with the camera, and a camera tracking across a map until it reaches the word BOSWORTH. It's all surprisingly effective.

That's kind of a summary of why I enjoy Roger Corman.
