Greetings Reviewers! I thought this was a beautiful masterpiece to view. The film went into detailed events of Thomas More's life. In this film, we were shown his wife Alice, his daughter Meg, Roper; the man his daughter is to marry, Richard Rich ( the man who begs him to hire him), Thomas Cromwell ( Cardinal Wosley's secretary ), King Henry VIII and all of the people in his church and court. The film demonstrated to us the religious beliefs of Thomas More, and also of how it conflicted with the beliefs of others. The film goes into the detailed events that lead to his execution. We were also shown King Henry VIII. We were shown his personality, how the people who knew him felt about him, and we were also given historical information pertaining to him wanting to marry Anne Boleyn and divorce Catharine of Aragon. With Henry VIII wanting the divorce, it brought on a lot of problems between the church and his court.
