Becket

1964 "An age of rampant lusts, abandon, runaway passions. An age brought bristling to life by two of the most exciting stars of our time!"

7.8 | 2h28m | PG-13 | en | Drama

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.
