"A Man for All Seasons" (1966)

Another major inaccuracy is that they make such a major point that More never said that Henry was wrong. This is true but only in the narrow legalistic sense - what the script never mentions is that More wrote several books in which he denounced Henry’s actions (albeit without mentioning the King specifically by name). The script ignores this in order to make More look completely innocent and undeserving of his fate. The reality is that while the law was unjust, More was guilty of knowingly and repeatedly breaking it.
