Customer Reviews: A crime to miss this one! July 12, 2009 Magpie (Birmingham, UK) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I first saw this film on VHS many years ago and was probably underage at the time! The story stayed with mr though and when I spotted it on DVD recently I just had to add it to my collection. br / br /Ken Russell has a reputation for providing his audience with contraversial and often shocking depictions of a world that is far removed from the average viewers experience and allows us a chance to get an alternative take on stories which we thought we knew well. With this film he presents us with two sides of a coin we may not want to possess; sexual perversion or frigidity, obsession or detachment, religious fervour or existance in a godless world. The imagery is as sharply focussed as one would expect from Ken Russell and he has drawn the very best from all the cast and crew to produce a film which is shocking, yet which possesses a gentle humour and a moral core which we can hold on to when things get rough - as they invariably will do in a Russell movie! br / br /Both Kathleen Turner and Anthony Perkins give amazing performances; two lost souls adrift in the world both looking fir meaning, on different paths but destined to converge. br / br /I loved this film many years ago and I love it still today.
