I don't mind recent Oscar winners with their complicated characters and bizarre situations (see Crash, The Departed, etc.) but it's nice to see a movie like A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS and remmember a time when the academy rewarded movies about deep, congruent, inteligent men. A truly great one for sure. The movie does feel a little dated regarding hair styles (very 60s!) and customs (you can easily tell they have never been worn until right before the movie was shot) but the performances and screenplay are simply fantastic. I read somewhere that Steven Spielberg hired Robert Shaw for JAWS after seeing this movie and it's easy to notice a similarity in his work on both films.Truly terrific ! |
