    Just like watching a stage play, the camera and music still seem to be exquisite, and the lines are gorgeous and witty. However, the bishop's change was too abrupt. I really don't understand how he suddenly devoted himself to...

    Henry II was brutal and naive. He had a heartache because of Beckett. He really loves him. (John really got Beckett's knife and collar, I knew it! Believers died first, then the godfather. Then both became saints. And the Christian story must have sacrifice, to die for the...

    The ambiguous relationship between religious power and royal power is a conjecture. It is not necessarily true. Is it possible that it is not a religious epic that entrained Nantong’s private goods, but originally wanted to shoot Nantong but could only disguise it as religious brotherhood (? Ironically, At that time, the perfect disguise was...

    The lines, the sets, and the cinematography are all gorgeous. However, the plot is too cold, the battle between kingship and religious power is already cold enough, and it has to be like two glasses. The queen frowned and asked, why do you love him but not me? King said, what did you give me? The queen said, my youth, and the baby. The king scolds, your babies hate each other more than each other, and I have never liked your...

    God and King, only one can be chosen

    Beckett is often not understood why he is so radically opposed to close friends.

    Beckett came from a commoner. When he was young, he was brought to Henry's side by the bishop because of his intelligence and ability. There is a type of person in this world who is smart, self-disciplined, principled...

    Big Love vs Little Love

    Henry II: Becket is my enemy. But on the scale of human nature, even if he is a traitor with nothing to spare like a newborn baby, he still weighs a hundred times more than you, madam, even if you add your phoenix crown, your jewels, and your uncle of Emperor Auguste. Now I am forced to fight him...

Becket quotes

  • Thomas a Becket: Lord Gilbert, Baron of England by the grace of his majesty, King Henry II, seized upon the person of a priest of the Holy Church and unlawfully did hold him in custody. Furthermore, in the presence of Lord Gilbert, and by his command, his men seized upon this priest when he tried to escape and put him to death. This is the sin of murder and sacrilege. In that Lord Gilbert has rendered no act of contrition or repentance, and is at the moment, at liberty in the land, we do, here and now, separate him from the precious body and blood of Christ, and from the society of all Christians. We exclude him from our Holy Mother Church and all her sacraments, in heaven, or on Earth. We declare him excommunicate and anathema. We cast him into the outer darkness. We judge him damned with the devil and his fallen angels and all the reprobate, to eternal fire and everlasting pain!

    [slams candle to the ground]

    Monks: [chanting] So be it.

  • Brother John: I don't mind if I am just a grain of sand in a machine. Because I know by putting more and more grains of sand in a machine, one day it'll come grinding to a stop.

    Thomas a Becket: And on that day - what then?

    Brother John: Well, we'll have a fine, new, well-oiled machine in the place of the old one. And this time we'll put the Normans into it instead. That's what justice means, doesn't it?
