Watch The Lion in Winter (1968)
right after seeing Becket (1964)

In the video below, Anthony Hopkins recalls his debut in this film with
Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn. Also making his debut was 21 year-old Timothy Dalton as King Phillip of France.  The Lion in Winter is the natural sequel to Becket. Peter O’Toole plays the same king he played in Becket, but at the end of his reign, rather than at the beginning. 

Fabulous.

• One of the most Quotable movies ever. My favorite kind. Those are the ones I can watch over and over without getting sick of them.

  archer1949 

• I received this movie as a gift for Christmas about twenty years ago. Every time I watch it, I see some subtle nuance or some different meaning in the lines. It will forever be one of my most favorite films.
