Early British Government example essay topic

I believe Mr. Lobell assigned this movie / book to show us how early government operated, as with the ruling of King Henry V. And to open our minds to how questionable and twisted our government really possibly is. As well as how far the government will go to control almost our every move, and beliefs. An example from the movie would be how all of the people's thoughts and minds had been sculpted into what the British realm had led them to believe. The thoughts and opinions of the people were no longer their own, but that of King Henry V, and the British management. They had even gotten the people to try and bribe Sir Thomas More, just so that they could convict him of so called wrong doing, in which none of it was true.

I also came to the conclusion that Mr. Lobell wanted us to notice how early British government reflects that of our government today. As with the moral and religious beliefs between the government and the people. The conflict between King Henry V and Sir Thomas More is an example of those principles. Basically I think we were suppose to recognize the debates about the details between the church and the world.
