Special commendations to "Sophie Scholl," which I only just saw earlier this year. Not exactly a popcorn flick. Really made me think. From a purely cinematic perspective, I agree with including "A Man for All Seasons" here. But as I've learned more about More (hah!), especially the way he handled his disagreements with William Tyndale, the less I like the man. Protestants who love and uphold the English Bible will not find a kindred spirit in Thomas More. In the case of those films I have seen (from both lists) I generally concur.
