Toadies and Sycophants

I am just watching A Man for All Seasons for the umpteenth time.

I love the scenes where the toadies wait for the king to laugh before they dare to and where they jump in the mud because he has done so. They remind me of our lower echelon politicians; meaning the cabinet, not simply the cannon fodder who masquerade as the people's representatives aka MPs.

I cannot find the scene but those above and below should show you how good this film is.
