I love how the executioner in addition to asking for forgiveness, makes an effort to be a quick as possible.
Its a shame that In real life the axe that the executioner used was not exactly Sharpened, after many blows he did not die, and Had to stop And finish the job with a knife.
@@BattleBismarck1941_ I think you are confusing More's execution with, perhaps that of Thomas Cromwell (who was played by Leo McKern in this movie), which reportedly was botched, and took several strokes. Every source I have ever seen states that More's head was taken off with one blow of the axe.
@@Hibernicus1968 I didn't Know, Thanks for the correction sir
@@Hibernicus1968what an awful way to go, maybe deserved to Cromwell but he was not the only victim of Henry's axe who had the misfortune of being executed shoddily, Margaret Pole, a relative of the King with enough Plantagenet blood, the wrong religion and sons connected to Rome to be a worry also died at the hands of a butcher that messed-up the whole thing.
Oh what is a man that gains the world but looses his soul? Nothing
He is Eternally Damned sentenced to the PIT by his own choosing.... 👍😯😧
But he who loses his life for Christ gains the eternal life. Amen 🙏

@@samaramel3.674 St. Thomas More? Nah, he's in Heaven for keeping true to God's word.
Saint Thomas More pray for us
🙄
@@bertiodvonrastenburger1129 🤦
🙏👼🙏
@@bertiodvonrastenburger1129 Saint thomas More, Pray For him.
So Thomas More was like Joan of Arc - executed for her principles in the short term by a corrupt government, but later honored by society and declared a saint
That’s St. Thomas More, sir.
He is the best 👍💯
Not.Yet.
An Angel incarnate and a Royal Knight of The Kingdom of Heaven indeed ..... Rest In Eternal Glorious Splendor Sir / St. More 😁
Let us never forget those great words "He will not refuse one who is so obliged to go to him".., Sir Thomas Moore..., God bless you sir..., for you will not be the last man of seasons to come.., its called Integrity..
Words so great you got them wrong...."He will not refuse one who is so blithe to go to him"
A Man For All Seasons was written by an atheist, Robert Bolt, and features an idealised caricature of a murderous fanatic- More- a man who had people murdered for owning a bible in English.
It is, for me, the greatest film ever made. It has virtually nothing to do with the actual life of the violent zealot Thomas More.
@Tobias-fd8ej belt up.
Eretico,barbaro,impara cosa vuol dire avere una coscienza!!! Con l'aiuto di Dio e di suo figlio Gesù Cristo, Nostro Signore!
@@mcmanustony They were not "murdered" any more than More was. They were tried and convicted under law, a law More was bound to obey and enforce by virtue of his office. You don't have to like it (I don't), but you should at least admit that. And I am unaware of anyone condemned merely for "owning a bible in English". That wasn't a crime, though it did arouse suspicion. They were condemned because they held heretical beliefs.
@@bradleykaiser4484 they were murdered
Saint Thomas More pray for us ✝️🇻🇦
I die hes majesty's good servant but GOD first "Thomas More"😭
It’s better to die than abandon the Catholic Church. St. Thomas More and I both know Jesus founded the Catholic Church and we can’t leave what he established for heresy.
The Church of England is nothing but heresy. St. Thomas More, pray for us.
@@Alex-qh5ll Yep, the Anglican Church is founded on the shameful divorce of a good woman, the death of loyal men, the pillaging of churches and monasteries, and the genocide of 100,000 Irish Catholics committed by their Queen Elizabeth.
They can claim all they want that the Catholic Church is corrupt, but the Lord will tremble more at the seed from which they emerged.
Regardless of whether you agree with More, or Norfolk, or Cromwell, "Richard Rich became Chancellor of England and died in his bed" was and remains an enduring comment on human civilization.
Indeed. He was a thoroughly odious human being, and not just for his false witness against Sir Thomas More. Historian Hugh Trevor-Roper summed him up pretty well when he noted that Rich was a man "of whom nobody has ever spoken a good word".
It is a sad commentary of on the injustice of society that a man like Rich lived a prosperous life and died in peaceful old age, when so many vastly better men went to undeserved early deaths, like Sir Thomas More.
That made me laugh and feel sad all at once.
@@Hibernicus1968
I heard a little ditty about him which goes:
"Better a poor man at ease
Than Lord Rich of Leez"
Imagine being vilified through the centuries.
"Richard Rich became Chancellor of England and died in his bed"
I wonder if that was his karmic justice.
@@perfectsplit5515 I mean, I think it's the opposite of karma as I understand karma. The principled people either got executed or narrowly avoided execution. Rich, the weasel with no principles other than self-advancement, acquired lots of power and lived to a ripe old age and died naturally.
The Archbishop has to take a bit of a hit. "You're very sure of that Sir Thomas?" I'm about to get my head chopped off and you're giving me an argument....
I’m proud to be a descendent of him.
WOW !!!!
How do you know you’re one?
Ummm this movie makes More a much nicer fellow than he was in real life.
He was a self righteous murderer and a torturer.
Or as he himself would have told you, "of his"
@@jimmy2k4o prove it
He wars loyal to king Henry to the end even when been sentenced to death by him.
I watched this movie for the first time yesterday and this scene is a stand out(In a film littered with stand out scenes). The executioner was clearly reluctant and I imagine the executioner who beheaded John the baptist was the same
This is a brilliant film and have watched it loads of times. What happened then in the later 1500s is happening now "I give the Devil the benefit of law for my own safety sake!" If only people could really understand that line!
"This is a brilliant film and have watched it loads of times"- I've watched it so often I can recite the script drunk in my sleep.
It has next to nothing to do with the actual life of murderous zealot More and, written by and atheist Robert Bolt, has to do with personal integrity and sustaining that under pressure.
@@mcmanustony Thank you! I get you on the reciting. There are just too many great lines in that film. Sir Thomas Moore had just too much wisdom. The line he gave to King when he made an unexpected visit. The lines to Cromwell when he was first questioned. The line he gave to Pope "Some men think the earth is round others think it flat. It is matter capable of question......" There is too many great lines. I have the film on usb stick, computer, hard drives and on my phone!! FOR my own safety sake 😂😂😂💻📱🖥️
@@powernab8457 More was a murderous, sadistic zealot who bore little relation to the admirable character portrayed by the atheist who wrote the screenplay.
I think you missed my point.
@@mcmanustony Oh well, you can't win them all. To be fair I don't think I missed the point at all!!
I was simply responding to your comment when you said "I've watched it so often I can recite the script drunk in my sleep" If you read my comment I was saying that there were so many great lines in the film which there were, especially when you consider when the film was made. What films today on that budget could make such great dialogue. I mean, that film is 58 years old!!
@@mcmanustony Nah he wasn't. He was a Chancellor and did sign off on several executions but compared to Henry or Elizabeth's lists of victims his remain in the single digits. Stop watching Wolf Hall.
In any case, the time and time that have passed are both beautiful and nostalgic.
Perhaps the finest performance in any movie.
St. Thomas More, ora pro nobis
He can't. He's dead.
@@mcmanustony God is God of the living, not the dead.
@@jameshojnowski8455 like Robert Bolt, the author of the play and Oscar winning screenplay, I am am atheist.
Your god is of the imagination.
The utter contempt in the way the narrator quickly tacks on, “…and died in his dead.” What a great movie.
The cruelty of the past is shocking
The cruelty of the present can also be shocking. Like the cruelty committed against the Jan 6th protesters in that DC Gulag.
@@perfectsplit5515 grow up. they were trying to violently overturn a democratic election. They got jailed for it. They got less than they deserved.
As is the cruelty of Thomas More.
I love this part
Not the end, simply a new beginning
when you want to comment on a movie clip video but you realize you have to write the same comment 11 times
Big fan! 😂😂
Cramner got time served off his purgatory fire.
Everyone loved and respected him. Even Henry did want to kill him but only did so because he was an arrogant narcissist who couldn’t stand being told no.
Anyone here old enough to remember Richie Rich was a comic book character in the 1960's ?
Talk about really being misplaced in their origins!
Thomas More's actual last words were 'I die his majesty's good servant, AND God's first', not 'but'. However, given his position that the king was going against God's will, I think 'but' would've been the more appropriate word, though the real-life St. More was probably trying to be more conciliatory.
Yes You're right, I was there.
He had a beard
Christ sent Thomas More to be an example for us in our lives.
I Love your channel
It's the best
Saint
His beard should be longer
I recall reading that when he put his head on the executioner's block, he moved his beard out of the way. It should not suffer the executioner's axe as his beard had not offended anyone.
@@jkcarroll Yeah I read about that. He was comical even at his execution.
I think Parliament had been more cruel than Kings of England. The Parliament killed several orientalists, in anger. Due to Cromwell, many scholars were executed.
we don't deserve any1 like Thomas More. he died a hero of Christ
Saint Thomas More
Hi, how do you get movie licenses?
Not sure but they don't
And hopefully Henry the 8th and Richard Rich are burning in Hell for condemning an innocent man
We shouldn’t wish that upon anybody. St Thomas Moore definitely doesn’t wish that upon Henry.
I DIE AS A FAITHFUL SERVANT FIRST OF GOD THEN MY KING. GOD ABOVE EVERYTHING
Oh to be an every man to act within his sceens
The begar or the jailer the revealer of dreams
It is a movie a year after I was born. ^O^

Why?
Because it shows a man dying for what he believes in? Ok 🙄
@@thecatholiccorner no. Its not getting the views it use ti gain.
Not too well known movie?
We don't know it in family too 😂
Winner of 6 Academy Awards including Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actor. Perhaps it’s not known to casual film goers, but it’s a film cinephiles do know.
Only not known to Philistines.
Yes, it's one of those rare movies that requires thinking and full focus of mind & heart. Only temporary pleasure & ecstasy matter these days.

Sir Thomas Moore was a Catholic Martyr but he did have Protestant Christian Martyrs tortured and burned at the stake for owning a bible in English
Not English Bibles, Bibles with heretical translations.

This man had protestants burnt alive for their belief.
You can’t judge today’s standards and beliefs with the society’s of the past. You must understand the culture of the times first before judgement.
@@loganw1232 Not judgement, just the hypocrisy of it, that Thomas More was a "good man" who died for his belief, he did the same to others and with a more painful death.
Rubbish this Saint was following the King’s orders and was on many cases lenient to heretics, insisting on mercy for them and tried to persuade many of them of the faults of their heresies via argument.
@@wessexfox5197 mercy and leniency was burning them alive because of their beliefs?
@@shanebell2514 chiefly by forbidding their torture. At most 6 were burned for treason and these men were not simply those who wished to think differently but were men who sought, as they had done in the Hussite Revolts and in the Peasants War in Germany, to use their station to subvert English society and overthrow traditional authority. He was treating them as any of of his Catholic or Protestant contemporaries would’ve done to their heretics.

Another crazy Christian meets his doom.
R.I.P. in cabbages.
this isnt the man of all seasons
Sir Thomas Moore Died a Martyr's Death 🙌 for His Roman Catholic 🇻🇦 Faith! But he Also had Protestant Christian ✝️ Martyr's 🙏 Tortured and Burnt 🔥 at the Stake for Owning and Reading The Holy Bible 📖 in English!!! 🏴
Apparently more courageous than Jesus, at his death.
For God sake the scene make me laugh not to be sad because the Acting is really bad otherwise in the tudors series the End of sir Thomas more is very emotional
But the Tudors weren’t as factual. Plus, Catholics have often had to choose between God and the world.
This man had protestants burnt alive for their belief.
Good.
@@johnbuggy9121 Christians really are vile to eachother and prove it every day.
God burns Protestants too... even Luther and Calvin supported burning Protestants, like Anabaptists and Zwinglians.
Thomas More's job as Chancellor was to see if there was enough evidence for heretics to be put on trial. He was not their judge nor jury, merely we might compare him to a Grand Jury. He did approve of the executions, which at the time execution for unrepentant heretics was agreed by all sides of the Protestant Revolt as the proper course of action.
@@jameshojnowski8455 I don't consider protestants who had anyone killed for their faith (whether they are Catholic or another protestant) as a Saint, this man to catholics is though. Like you ackowledged, he approved executions.
