Becket background

Becket

The tumultuous relationship between King Henry II of England and his loyal friend Thomas Becket unfolds as the latter's devotion to his faith grows stronger, ultimately pitting him against the king's demands.

King Henry II installs his trusted advisor Thomas Becket as Archbishop of Canterbury, expecting him to remain loyal. However, Becket finds a new sense of purpose in the church and defies the King's wishes, leading to a rift and a dramatic confrontation between the two men and their respective institutions.
