		A new report from England's Durham University about Internet dating, Love On The Net, has found that women, instead of looking for a sole companion for all of their life, are much more likely to choose different men for the different stages of their life.
		Richard says she found that, although women are sometimes uncomfortable with and unnerved by their single state and their sexuality in mid-life, many of them are taking a totally new look at sex and relationships.
		She says her research indicates there are four distinct romantic/sexual stages for women looking for a man today.

		A Man for All Seasons is a handsome adaptation of the stage play on which it is based, with fine acting, solemn issues, and a message of moral order that conservative audiences of the 1960s found attractive.
		The appeal of A Man for All Seasons to 1966 audiences was a direct reaction to the cultural upheavals in the world at large.
		Films such as this are rare today; 'A Man for All Seasons' turns not on action sequences of battles past or present, nor on love affairs, or indeed political issues that have a burning relevance for today.

	Edinburgh Guide Theatre review - A Man For All Seasons - Pitlochry Festival Theatre Company
		I suspect the decision to stage a revival of A Man for All Seasons was taken long before the date was set for the General Election and also months before the Pope's death and the marriage of Charles and Camilla, with all the media controversy surrounding their succession to the throne.
		The play begins with The Common Man, who like Shakespeare's Chorus, acts as a narrator while the audience is the jury as we listen to the debate.
		As a man of law, he abides by facts and refuses to take an oath to affirm the King's supremacy of the Church of England.

	'A Man for All Seasons': A Sturdy Conscience, a Steadfast Heart
		I lay stress upon the screen, because the play is essentially a showing of just one prolonged conflict of wills, one extended exposition of a man's refusal to swerve from his spiritual and intellectual convictions at the insistence of his King.
		Bolt, in writing his own screenplay, has dropped the Common Man, who was a glib and ubiquitous character of vulgar wit and cynicism on the stage.
		By this stroke, he has eliminated the built-in point of view of the commonality to these grand monarchial intrigues that was helpful to a balance of the whole.

		Robert Bolt's play A Man for All Seasons presents a "hero of the self" whose unwavering integrity collides with King Henry VIII's egoistic drive to wrench personal salvation and political permanence for the Tudor line from an unwilling, because politically cornered, Pope.
		The Common Man makes all too clear that the likes of a Sir Thomas More are as rare today as they were in Henry's VIII's kingdom.

		A Man for All Seasons (1966) is directed by Fred Zinnemann, famous for such popluar films as The Day of the Jackal (1973), High Noon 1952, and the film version of Oklahoma!
		Being a spiritual man, Sir Thomas doesn't believe in Henry's break with the Church, and is too honest and God-fearing to lie and take a false oath before God.
		Zinnemann's A Man for All Seasons is definitely a classic and well worth renting, even after all of these years.

		A Man for All Seasons is the story of a man who knows who he is. The 1966 film (there is also a 1988 Charlton Heston made-for-TV version), which won six Acadamy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor (Paul Scofield), is brilliant and compelling, steely with conviction, luminous with genuine wisdom and wit.
		To be doubted then — to be told that your most solemn assurance is empty, that you are incapable of vouching for the point in question — it’s like being told that you are no one at all, that you have no character, no identity, no soul.
		There is, in fact, a character to whom More tells this very thing: Richard Rich, a superficial young man who in the end has a hand in More’s undoing.

		Whether it is accurate in all its details or not, A Man for All Seasons is an attempt to present the historical conflict between Thomas More and Henry VIII.
		The conflict could be viewed as merely a political one but neither history nor the filmmakers have viewed More's conduct purely in that light, although Henry followed a policy which advanced his personal power while it diminished the power of the Church of Rome.
		More was a reknowned humanist and man of letters, described by his great contemporary, Erasmus, as omnium horarum homo, "a man of all times" rendered as "A Man for All Seasons," in Robert Bolt's play, from which the movie is taken.

		Bolt claimed he was drawn to More as a man with "an adamantine sense of his own self": he contrasted that with modern man's value-free, materialist existence.
		He roughly chastises his wife, tongue-lashes his future son-in-law and displays real anger in his trial when he cries "a man's soul is his self".
		Shaw is also excellent in the two best scenes in the play: those where More diplomatically evades the king's demands and where he all but breaks down in the face of his family's entreaties.
