  • The film of "A Man for All Seasons" was released in 1966, not 1967.

  • ... You are right! Thanks for the correction!

  • @Makashi11 old comment but thanks for the info. came across 'A man for all Seasons' yesterday, the performances are dazzling. But your comment is sobering. Thanks.

  • @Makashi11 Its shakespiere academy numb nuts its all full of pretentious overly educated dickheads who are all full shit... i mean theyre stupid literary teachers who subject students to their pointless poetry and expect us to care. People who actually give a fuck about poetry are of an esoteric minority... anyway SO FUCK YOU POETS YOUR DAYS ARE GONE THANK YOU SHAKESPIERE FOR BEING SO BORING FOR ME IN SCHOOL ARSEHOLE. I HOPE THAT EYE CANCER WAS EXCRUTIATINGLY PAINFULL. Yours faithfully xD

  • @15671643 Malditos italianos q me chupas imbecilini xD

  • A beautiful documentary for a magnificent Actor. infinitamente grazie!

  • HAHA: 7:42 'a humane man'. Thomas More ordered the burning of thousands of people - is that humane?!

  • @europecinema You haven't risen to the putrid cultural lake that is our age in a while, sir? Is all well, are you toeing over gems in the forest, the desert, the tundra! In any case, you have provided us with many a gem. So here's to you in the age of disappointments.

  • The best Lear I've ever seen. Intriguing bio. Thanks.

  • A little appreciated role was in the film "The Train" (1964). He stole the film from the supposed star Burt Lancaster and made a mediocre film into a true classic.
