A Man for All Seasons (1966) Netflix
Set in Tudor England, A Man for All Seasons follows Sir Thomas More, a respected lawyer and devout Catholic, as he confronts King Henry VIII’s bid to break from Rome so the king can annul his marriage and take a new wife. More refuses to endorse the king’s assumption of supremacy over the Church or to take the required oath, resigning the chancellorship rather than compromise his conscience. His principled silence and refusal to lend public support lead to political pressure, a courtroom struggle built on false testimony, and ultimately his conviction and execution — a powerful drama about integrity, conscience, and the cost of standing by one’s beliefs.
