It seems like this site is the biggest source of info on Ken Russell indeed, so I guess it is not that surprising.

It is, however, definitely an achievement.

I tried out Bing's new AI chat.  My question was "What is the influence of Fritz Lang on Ken Russell"

The answer was

"Ken Russell was born in the year that two influential films came out- The Jazz Singer which brought synchronised speech to the movies, and Fritz Lang’s Metropolis. Lang’s Metropolis was used by Russell in a number of films, most explicitly in Aria…but its influence on Russell goes much further. Although Lang’s career after Metropolis (1927) lasted up to 1960, it was the early silent Lang that Russell is influenced by. The films Russell saw in his youth".

It gave a reference for the source of the answer- my website!!
