Foreword by Russell influenced film director Bernard Rose.
Ken Russell was among the most provocative, creative, original and important directors in British film and television history but his career and legacy have long suffered under the media clichés of ‘Madman’ or ‘Enfant Terrible’ of British cinema – nicknames which have tended to delegitimise his status and pioneering role in post-war film and television culture.
