The style of this film is extremely concise

The film won an Oscar in 1966. At first, the filmmaker Columbia was not optimistic, which led to an extremely tight shooting budget. But the director still completed the production extraordinary. Several scenes are impressive, such as the scene where Moore meets his wife and daughter in the Tower of London, and the final meeting with Cromwell in court about whether "silence" means tacit consent or an answer to opposition. Reflects the characteristics of Moore, a Christian humanist who was born in law.

However, the scene in which Richard Ritchie accused Moore in the court should have been taken from the case of Ritchie's inducing confession to the Bishop of Rochester, John Fisher. Fischer also had an ambiguous attitude towards the Supreme Act. During his visit, Rich induced him to tell his true thoughts: The Supreme Act waited and declared that God was no longer God.

    Loyalty to the Faith or the King? Rights, ideals, want to defend their rights through the law, but the law and kingship. . . . Henry VIII wanted to marry his mistress to abolish the queen, and Thomas, as a Catholic, wanted to protect his faith through the law
