A Man For All Seasons (1988) (Ff) (883929199310)
In an age when the temporal power of the King is absolute, but disobeying the Church may damn a person for all eternity, King Henry VIII of England defies the Pope and breaks his entire country from the Catholic Church. One man--Sir Thomas More, Chancellor of England and the King's most trusted friend and advisor--opposes the Henry VIII's move to take both absolute political power and to speak as God's representative on earth. More refuses to yield his principles to anyone ... even to the King he respects and loves ... even as he goes to face his executioner in this poweful, true drama of a seminal event in the history of Western civilization.
