Please note: this film is rated NC-17. Nobody under the age of 17 will be admitted. After 55 years…The Devils are finally unleashed! Censored. Controversial. Practically impossible to see in its intended form. Now, Ken Russell’s The Devils is back. And this time, it’s in a brand new 4K restoration from the original camera negative, referencing the edit he privately constructed in 2004. Based on the infamous true story of 17th-century French priest Urbain Grandier (Oliver Reed), The Devils follows a charismatic priest whose defiance of church and state makes him the target of a political conspiracy. When a sexually repressed nun (Vanessa Redgrave) accuses Grandier of witchcraft, an entire convent becomes consumed by an eruption of violence that threatens to tear the town apart. This 1971 masterpiece is one of the most audacious films ever made and became one of the most notoriously censored films in British cinema. Don’t miss this extremely rare treat on the big screen!
