“Yes, it’s gay and yes, the leads are cowboys but that title doesn’t do justice to the love story that is born to Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist (Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal). It is a love that cannot be explained or defined; it merely is and cannot be ignored.”

Ken Russell’s The Devils – 2010 Fantasia International Film Festival

Iconic director Ken Russell was in town to receive a lifetime achievement award from Fantasia for his 50-plus years in the business, a career that has spawned many genre classics including Altered States, Gothic, and The Lair of the White Worm. But it was the little-seen and hard to find The Devils from 1971 that proved to be Russell's most controversial work, and Fantasia managed to snag a copy to be screened on Russell's big night. In the video, Russell discusses the true story behind the film and receives his award with the grace befitting one of the great filmmakers of all time.
