Becket
1964 ยท 2 hrs 28 mins
King Henry II of England has trouble with the Church. When the Archbishop of Canterbury dies, he has a brilliant idea. Rather than appoint another pious cleric loyal to Rome and the Church, he will appoint his old drinking and wenching buddy, Thomas Becket, technically a deacon of the church, to the post. Unfortunately, Becket takes the job seriously and provides abler opposition to Henry. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2003.
Director: Peter Glenville
Cast: Richard Burton, Peter O'Toole, John Gielgud, Gino Cervi, Paolo Stoppa
