I just watched Ken Russell's The Devils.
It is a masterpiece of corruption and power grab, and it is so relevant today.
It's a story of an imperfect man being forsaken so oppressors can triumph. It's a story of accusations of devil worship, where denial of the accusations is as much a sign of guilt than a confession.
It's one of the greatest films ever made, an uncomfortable tale of hysteria and torture.
It's perhaps not for the faint hearted.
Want to understand how fascism wins?
Watch The Devils.
