on Mar 21 2008 12:13 AM Great actor. People who don't know who he is should broaden their viewing habits a bit and snap up A Man for All Seasons. Great film. R.I.P, Mister Scofield. (Reply to this) |

on Mar 21 2008 07:49 AM Paul Scofield was awesome as King Lear in the Peter Brook film based on the play....he also was pretty great as the Ghost in Zefferelli's film adaptation of Hamlet starring Mel Gibson...underrated movie. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 06 2008 11:32 AM In reply to this comment (#1644851) Oh my gosh, Vader is most correct! My husband and I just watched this film for the first time last night and it was excellent! My dear husband however wound up with pretty bad case of Weltschmerz from the viewing experience. Much of that reaction I believe was due to the effectiveness of Mr. Scofield's performance.
