After 55 years of pearl clutching censorship, Ken Russell’s brazenly sacrilegious, opulently provocative masterpiece reaches our biggest screen in the way God intended: uncut and in a freshly minted 35mm print. Prepare to be trebuchet’d into the spiritual and carnal battle for the city of Loudon, where Father Urbain Grandier battles enemies both foreign and domestic to save his flock and, most importantly, himself from corrupt cardinals, wicked inquisitors and exasperated nuns. The Devils is a trifecta of magnificent performances by Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave, fearless directing by Russell and extravagant production design by Derek Jarman; the future queer pioneer director drew inspiration from Fritz Lang’s Metropolis, giving this 17th century story an otherworldly quality amongst the historically accurate debauchery. Presented in English without subtitles.
