This is an interesting take, it bothers me that art gets banned when the historical record is more horrifying than the adaptation. Humans are so peculiar,
Ken Russell talking about the gauze people have for filtering upsetting content that I’ve always visualized!! very interesting to see someone else speak about this

This is a quote about this from my interview with Javier Bardem.
Jane Schoenbrun talking about how we go watch revolutions in movies and then go home and do nothing & moderator clocking that’s the plot of digger and Jane saying ā€œunfortunately it is the plot of diggerā€

Another fun fact: after Ken Russell and Derek Jarman worked on The Devils together, the latter also did sets for the former’s Savage Messiah (1972), another of the director’s ā€œloving an artist is nothing but painā€ joints. About sculptor Henri Gaudier-Brzeska.

A sus 89 años Vanessa Redgreave por fin ha podido ver la versión sin censura de #TheDevils que rodó hace 55 años con Ken Russell. Ha ocurrido durante el reestreno de la película en Londres. ¿Hay #Oscars retroactivos?

Seeing The Devils reminded me of how stuffed crocodiles were sometimes hung from the ceilings of churches to symbolize dragons. This seems to have been a 15th-16th century trend.

I am so so so beyond excited that more and more people are getting to experience ā€œThe Devilsā€and giving it its dues, one of my favorite movies of all time, it is so important to me and increasingly relevant to the world. Hugely influential to my sense of aesthetics and horror

THE DEVILS is a deeply upsetting film but a thought provoking look at abuse of powers in religion, politics, and relationships. A film with such strong craft that I found myself engrossed from beginning to end. It’s so important for films like this to exist. 10/10.
