Heh... Hhehehe... I like this news. Ken Russell is one of those guys that makes me tilt my head and look at a film from a bit of an askewed angle. Of course... that might just be me. Take a look... and if this news doesn't set you to giggling... Well... Sorry.
Dear Harry,
Here's some gossip for you. The director Ken Russell is now in pre-production for a new feature film - 'The Fall of the Louse of Usher' - based on several of the stories of Edgar Allen Poe. He is making it as an underground film as he is tired of trying to get funding from an unresponsive and unimaginative British Film Industry. It is to star Roger Daltrey as Roddy Usher and Ken himself as mad Doctor Cali-Hari. It will be a gothic-comedy-horror-musical including musical contributions from The Mediaeval Baebes amongst others. Watch this space for more details.
