A Man for All Seasons (1966)

This one is part of J's "see all the Best Picture Oscar winners" project. It was super boring and historically questionable. Supposedly, it's the story of Thomas More who famously refused to publicly condone Henry VIII's marriage to Anne Boleyn. The film, however, seems to just skip over important information whenever it sees fit and it lacks the majesty one expects from a movie about royalty or those connected to royalty. Well, and to be honest, it doesn't help when The Tudors did it better and I saw that series before this film.
