Savage Messiah: Ken Russell > Savage Messiah: Ken Russell
French Dressing screening in Herne Bay, UK
Iain Fisher:
I'd love a French Dressing DVD with lots of extras.
My ideal:
- deleted scenes
- commentary by Ken
- second commentary by Mark Kermode.
Thanks for the update and I hope you have a good 2010.
Slappyhead:
Hey Iain, still no word from Canal / Optimum on home video release for French Dressing, but my collection has grown since the screening. Many press photos of Marisa taking a bath surrounded by the mayor - Bryan Pringle and members of his council suggest a funny scene that didn't make the cut. Undoubtedly it will probably never be seen again, a shame as the film really needs that little bit more to save it from it's troubled life.
Thanks and happy new year
Nick Jones:
They refer to him as an "Oscar-winning director". Unfortunately, no; he was nominated for Women in Love, but only Glenda Jackson took home an Oscar for that film.
Iain Fisher:
Interesting video. He mentions Moll Flanders (probably not going ahead) and Boadicea Bites Back described as a cycle of songs, a cine-opera.
