In that very last scene of the series the look on Henry's face as he embraces Cromwell is truly terrifying. What I find

I too pointed out in another thread how Rylance is doing as much when he is listening as he is when he is speaking. That whole scene where the Boleyn's were yacking away while Cromwell just stood and took it all in is a good example. Ditto for when Henry just went off at him.

The last scene was terrifying. The total lack of any regret, sorrow, even passing chagrin, on Henry's faceCromwell was wise enough to take any man's measure at several pacesand in that last scene, he took it at nearly a football field.

I enjoyed his and everyones performance.
I've read some posts that think he was miscast as Cromwell.
What were those people thinking? I guess the real "Crumb" was larger but so what? The real Henry VIII was larger, too.
I like to see different interpretations of these people in this amazing time in history.

One of the most brilliant understated performances I've ever seen.
And I completely agree that last scene is chilling lol.

In the last scene, I wondered if Mark Rylance's Cromwell had some foreboding - that he will be go down just like Anne Boleyn who was once prized and loved. They're all victims and pawns of Henry VIII's whims.
