Line 25:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Cromwell and, on occasion, Sir Thomas:
 
{{quote| '''Wolsey''': The King wants a son- what are you going to do about it?<br />
'''More''': (dry) I'm very sure the King needs no advice from me on what to do about it. }}
 
Line 41:
* [[Inspired By]]
* [[Karma Houdini]]: As the 1966 film informs us:
{{quote| Richard Rich became Chancellor of England...and died in his bed.}}
* [[Large Ham]]: King Henry in spades. During his attempt to get More's endorsement, he's basically shouting the entire time. Even the other characters notice it, and are listening at the window. Or away from the window, given the volume.
* [[Loss of Identity]]: Averted. Sir Thomas makes it clear, though, that if he had consented to swear a false oath, this ''would'' have been his inevitable fate. Richard Rich arguably falls victim to it, though we do not really see the effects onscreen.
