    After Thomas took over the priesthood, he knew more about the suffering of the people than he was the prime minister, won the love of the people, and found his Saxon self, which attracted the suspicion of Henry II and framed him in the name of corruption. Thomas had to live in other villages and practice ascetic self-cultivation. After many years, he returned to China and was still loved by the Chinese, causing the knights to panic and kill...

    Sensitive, slender and fragile, and stubborn like a donkey, both of them are like this, and the power magnifies these problems infinitely (. In addition, I have been thinking about what would happen if Burton and O'Toole switched...

    I don't really like Beckett's character

    Why do foreign Burton fans, nearly half of them, including Burton's mentor and Burton's biographer, think "The World" is his best movie? In my opinion, "Berlin Spy" and "Spiritual Night" are his best movies. The former has a stronger story and the latter is Burton's acting peak.

    As for "Domination...

    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...

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?
