The Boy Friend
1. Clip seen. Polly Browne (Twiggy) and Tommy (Tommy Tune) dancing on the record.
a. Russell's tribute to Busby Berkeley.
b. The exceptional costumes were designed by his wife at that time Shirley Russell.
Lair of the White Worm
1. Clip seen. Lady Sylvia Marsh's (Amanda Donohoe's) 1st visit in the film to Mercy Farm.
a. The film is considered to be excessive by some, but no film by Russell matches Ken's sensibilities as well as this one does.
Hardly the best scene from any of the 4 films, but . . .
no nudity
no profanity
no sex
no violence
in any of the scenes and that's hard to find in any of Russell's films.
Concluded
Next time: 20 films. 20 questions.
