A Man 0-fer All Seasons

This week’s literary 0-fer is . . . Robert Bolt!

(Technically, he’s not an 0-fer, since I have seen two movies for which he wrote the screenplays: Lawrence of Arabia and The Mission. But I’ve neither read nor seen A Man For All Seasons, and this 0-fer gives me the opportunity to send you to Bourgeois Surrender’s writeup about it (and other subjects).)

    I think “A Man for All Seasons” is one of the great movies of the 1960s, and Bolt’s screenplay for “Dr. Zhivago” made that awful novel into a pretty good movie….
