A Man for All Seasons shows what happens when a government starts cannibalizing its own founding laws to suit the whims of its leader. In a truly moving performance, Frank Langella plays Sir Thomas More, an honest family man pushed from silent dissension to speaking truth to power when King Henry VIII creates his own church in order to divorce his queen. While the play is old-fashioned, its message of staying true to one's conscience in the face of a self-serving regime could not be more timely. Langella delivers a portrayal full of humanity, humility, and honor.
