Henry VIII's Enforcer: The Rise and Fall of Thomas Cromwell

Синопсис

Lawyer and statesman Thomas Cromwell served as chief minister to Henry VIII from 1532 to 1540 and has gone down in history as one of the most corrupt and manipulative people ever to hold power in England. In this documentary Diarmaid MacCulloch reveals another side to the man, arguing that Cromwell was a principled idealist and revolutionary whose radical evangelism laid the foundations for the modern British state.
