*The Devils* (1971) is considered one of the most provocative and controversial films in the body of work by British director Ken Russell. Based on real events that took place in 17th-century France and on the novel by Aldous Huxley, the film tells the story of the priest Urbain Grandier, played by Oliver Reed, and the events that unfolded in the town of Loudun when a series of accusations of demonic possession sparked a conflict between the Church, political power, and personal interests.
Also starring Vanessa Redgrave as the tormented Sister Jeanne, the film stands out for its staging, its baroque visual style, and its critique of intolerance, repression, and the manipulation of power. Although it sparked significant controversy due to its imagery and religious themes—leading to censorship in several countries—it was recognized for its artistic audacity and is now considered a cult classic of British cinema. The film received several BAFTA Award nominations and cemented Ken Russell’s reputation as one of the most daring and original directors of his generation.
