Heavy robes, stone palaces, esteemed actors, and melodious voices — all in the service of some facile debates on the subject of justice and personal integrity. Paul Scofield is a too saintly Thomas More, Robert Shaw is a too noisy Henry VIII, and the issue is too settled to stir up any partisanship either way. Written by Robert Bolt; directed by Fred Zinnemann. (1966) — Duncan Shepherd
