 Rating:  - Sir Thomas for for Senate"If a statesmen foresakes with private conscience for the sake of public office, he leads his county to a short route to chaos." Thomas More to Cardinal Wolsey regarding granting an unlaw divorce to King Henry VIII from his barren wife. How great a country would America be if our Congress men and women had the courage of Thomas Moore. Man for All Seasons is one of the greatest movies of all time.

However the history is very skewed. More was vindictive and cruel. Moral values that mattered were only his own. The Library of Congress had a display about William Tyndale some years ago.

In other words is a principle right only when it suits one. Who gets to decide man or God. This film shows one man's firm resovle to be true to his beliefs, priciples and the ultimate result of his choice. What is that saying about action speaking louder than words? Rating: - A Show For All SeasonsAn excellent movie with, what has to be, one of the best cast of actors in a critically acclaimed success. This film not only provides the audience with great visual backgrounds, a solid script, off the chart actors, but also provides a message that one could only wish were true today. A film to watch and then watch again. Browse for similar items by category:
