As the story opens, King Henry II, who ruled England from 1154 to 1189 has entered Canterbury Cathedral to do penance at the tomb of his former
friend, Thomas Becket. Bare to the waist, the king kneels to receive a
flogging from Saxon monks. He begins to reminisce, recalling at first
the carefree, promiscuous adventures with Becket, then his favorite
drinking and wenching companion. A violently emotional drama that probes
the changing relationship between two young men - between two close
friends bound together by similar pride of flesh and spirit who become
deadly enemies as they pursue their separate destinies . . . that of
king . . . and saint.

Ο βασιλιάς Ερρίκος ο Δεύτερος έχει προβλήματα με την καθολική ηγεσία της Ρώμης. Όταν πεθαίνει ο αρχιεπίσκοπος του Καντέρμπουρι, του έρχεται μια
ιδέα. Αντί να στείλει κάποιον υψηλό ιερωμένο, στέλνει στη Ρώμη τον διάκο
Μπέκετ, με τον οποίο ήταν φίλος από χρόνια. Όμως, ο Μπέκετ παίρνει στα
σοβαρά τη θέση του κι έρχεται σε κόντρα με τον βασιλιά.

A great movie for everyone! Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole both give monumental performances in this masterful play of love and power. John Gielgud has a great supporting appearance. The film earned an impressive 12 Oscar nominations, winning for best screenplay.
