This is the release I never thought would happen.Only prevously available on DVD in the UK in the 1971 cut UK version, it looked like Warner Brothers would never release the film as Ken Russell intended. Despite the missing sequences being unearhed in the early 2000s, it became clear that Warners were not only resistant to a release, they were actively blocking one.
So when I read the news last April that a 4k restoration of Russell's definitive cut was premiering in Cannes, I immediately contacted WTW to get this in the diary.
And now it's here.
Join me for what is going to be an extraordinary screening - I've waited to see this for over 30 years.
Its US release a few weeks ago was one of the majpr hits of the year, and it's just had a 5* review from Peter Bradshaw in The Guardian:
"Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave put in the performances of their lives in this film originally banned for obscenity that highlights the violence of power"
Don't miss the PFC screening of Ken Russell's THE DEVILS at the Plaza Cinema Truro on Sunday November 8th.
