Somehow, in 1966, director Fred Zinnemann filmed a movie about Sir Thomas Moore and his opposition to King Henry VIII's decision to cast aside the Catholic Church and obtain a divorce so that he could remarry. And somehow this film won the Academy Award for Best Picture. A Man for All Seasons is languid and a bit stodgy - but it does feature Orson Welles in a terrifically crazy performance as a Catholic Cardinal! So there's that.
