Willow ,'Empty Places'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Henry II in A Man for All Seasons and A Lion in Winter
Close but not quite. Those are two different Henrys: The one in A Man for All Seasons is Henry VIII (played by Robert Shaw), while A Lion in Winter is Henry II.
Interestingly, the other O'Toole-as-Henry II movie also has him killing a trusted friend / former advisor.
Peter Gallagher and Marlon Brando?
What's his name from Guys and Dolls. Masterson?
Skye Masterson
I got my Thomases confused! A Man for All Seasons is Thomas More, and the other Henry II movie is with Thomas A Beckett and I can't remember the name of it offhand.
Kevin Costner and Henry Fonda
Laurence Olivier and Ian McKellen.
Richard III?
Yep.
Costner and Fonda's gotta be Wyatt Earp?
Ah-yup.
