For a period piece about the English Civil War and the role that Oliver Cromwell and King Charles I played in it, this film is excellent. Both Richard Harris and Alec Guiness are perfectly cast as Cromwell and the King respectively and are surrounded by a fine supporting cast. Guiness at times is absolutely spellbinding as a King who slowly realizes that power is slipping from him and his performance is one of the greatest film representations of a Monarch I've ever seen.

One of my favorite movies of all time. I show it to my 8th grade class in order to explain the foundations of our Revolution and democracy.

In my opinion this is one of the best things Richard Harris ever did, and that is saying a lot. This area of English history is not as well known by Americans as Queen Elizabeth R, Henry the VIII, and others, but it is a part of English history that is taught well in this masterpiece of acting and storytelling. Alex Guinness is excellent as the King who just didn't get it. Don't miss this.
