"I'm watching Becket. I can't remember the last time I saw this film but I am blown away by Burton and O'Toole, once again. Their performances in the scenes together really convey the love and tensions in the relationship of the King and his adviser. Such charismatic men too. " Yep them guys were proper movie stars.... but do'ya think these days they'd call having that's sort of screen presence the X-factor..... | |||

"Richard Burton is one of my al time favourite actors, his voice is like silk on your ears, no wonder Liz was besotted with him " | |||

Acting styles and modern direction would change their performances a bit (less melodramatic death scenes) but the intimate conversations would remain the same and that is where they excel. Although O'Toole being flogged was pretty well done too. | |||

I must get myself a Bette Davis fix soon. | |||

"They showed Peter O'Toole being inter_iewed by Michael Parkinson and Russell Harty this morning, as a preliminary to showing the film. He was a very charismatic man " I missed that. I might try and find it on the repeat thingy. | |||

"I've never seen that film - I love O'Tooke though in Lawrence of Arabia - he just plays that role so brilliantly. " Brilliant film. I've lost count of the number of times I've watched and have even got my 20 year old son rating it highly too! TE Lawrence is something of an interest of mine and I'd love to know how near to him Peter O'Toole's interpretation of him was | |||

It was on R4 Book of the Week earlier this year. | |||

" Always powerful performances From burton and o`toole, a similar film I like was A man for all seasons (1966 film) which is about sir thomas more lord chancellor of england based on robert bolts play and stars paul schofield, quite a moveing film and a Sad end to one of the greatest men in Englands history. | |||
