O'toole really chose this part well after Lawrence of Arabia. He dyed his hair dark to contrast from Lawrence. And he also chose a much more extroverted, boisterous, and domineering type of character. He really fulfilled that outline technically and imaginatively, therefore showing his versatility. He then went back to the quiet introverted character in Goodbye Mr. Chips.

One of the crushing ironies about the real-life story of Henry II and Becket is that it was Henry who stood for the progressive "modern" idea of government. He believed that everyone, without exception, was subject to the state, both for purposes of taxation and for the administration of justice. Becket's view -- that the Church was an empire-within-the-empire, and that the clergy were not subject to civil law -- was a system rife with abuse that, four centuries later, helped to produce the Reformation. Becket took such an extreme, intransigent position on these issues that even the Pope was ultimately reluctant to support him. Unfortunately for his own reputation, Henry's overreaction in ordering Becket's murder appalled all Europe; he never recovered from it politically.
@miguelservetus95343 жыл бұрын
Hard to view Henry Ii as a progressive. He wanted money and power as did the church. Some historians say that the church served as a check on the absolute power of kings as imposed by the Normans. (Not a problem with previous. Saxon governance. ). This buffer of the kings power explained Beckets popularity with the masses. It is also why Henry VIII ended the pilgrimages to Canterbury But that’s another tale. The nobility were at this time subject to the Kings absolute power. The Magna Carta was decades away. Interesting, the real issue was who got to try a priest for rape and murder. Neither Henry nor Becket were progressives. A minor liberty of the movie is that Becket was not a Saxon.
@miguelservetus95342 жыл бұрын

True, see the Constitutions of Clarendon, which were attempts to rein in the priviledges of the church and their ecclesiatical courts, since he didn't like the idea of the church trying their own without input from the crown. Henry VIII clearly sided with Henry II when he called on Becket to appear and answer for his accusation of Becket being a traitor to Henry II, before Henry VIII had Becket's shrine removed after Becket didn't show up.

Henry had boundless energy and Eleanor definitely chose a virile and ambitious leader in him, being some 10 years younger than her, she being 30 and him being 20. Richard also was always on campaign and always in the field. Being in England doesn't matter to him as England is largely stable politically with little to no competition. Where the early Plantegenets had in strength is in mustering resources and being out in the thick of matters. And for Richard, he literally took his fathers' legacy to a whole new level, even literally. Many a times at the battle of Jaffa, Richard dressed in resplendent regal combat armor with the crown atop his helm was surrounded by Saladin's warriors in the thick of action, at times separated from his bodyguard of retainers. How he came out alive and unscathed remains a mystery even to this day. Even the Muslims atest to this same viage of Richard and it's really a story that will be told far into the future

Like Peter with Kate Hepburn in "The Lion in Winter", friendly rivalry, one-upmanship and warily watching that the other didn't steal too many scenes allowed them to collide on screen like the Atlantic and Pacific meeting head-on at Cape Horn. Two other fine actors would've ignited the screen, O'Toole and Burton explode. Oh, and both were so professional and invested that they swore off their legendary benders (sort of) to insure their total presence to the project (although Peter did say in future interviews he was a bit hungover during this scene but for authenticity for his post-debauch headache).

Oh, Patrick Henry. Your abomination by me has proven notes where grounds have validity with each node of England.

As director I would have reminded O'Toole that we weren't doing the play, he needn't shout every single line.

O'Toole is boisterous in his performance to at once mark a sharp contrast from the quiet man he was in Lawrence Of Arabia. This was only his second starring role. He also effortlessly dominates the scene here. That's why the director went with it.

My only complaint as a history nerd is that the three lions was adopted by Richard. To my knowledge Henry never used that symbology. This movie is phenomenal though! Peter O Toole was so gifted.

My father always admired Becket, spoke reverently of him and his chutzpah in remaining defiant in the face of Henry’s knights who slew him. Then we did some genealogical work and found out Henry II is our direct ancestor. Oops.

Anyone else feel like playing Crusader Kings 2 after watching this?
