Playing at Midtown for ONE WEEK ONLY starting this Friday: Ken Russell's THE DEVILS! The Director's Cut. Restored in Glorious 4K. Uncensored. NC-17.

In 17th-century France, Father Grandier (Oliver Reed) is a priest whose unorthodox views on s*x and religion influence a passionate following of nuns, including the s*xually obsessed Sister Jeanne (Vanessa Redgrave). When the power-hungry Cardinal Richelieu (Christopher Logue) realizes he must eliminate Grandier to gain control of France, Richelieu portrays Grandier as a satanist and spearheads a public outcry to destroy the once-loved priest's reputation...

Assembled from the original camera negative, this new 4K restoration presents Ken Russell’s definitive vision of THE DEVILS by referencing the edit he privately constructed in 2004. KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is the uncut and unfiltered theatrical experience that Russell always envisioned – and the first time the film will be presented restored and in 4K.
