Glad I found the DVD
I was lucky enough to find this masterpiece on DVD uncut. I highly recommend the DVD.
The true Devils
I saw this masterpiece when it first came out, 1971. I have not stoped thinking and talking about it since. The devil you think of are not the devils you will see. It will leave a mark on you. This is not a light film. You won't forget it. Expect a wide range of emotional reponses, widest range of any film I have seenwith the possible exception being the Kind Of Hearts with Allan Bates.
This film is a realistic rendition of the harsh reality of life for the common people of early France. It is relevant and contemporary in its portrayal of the relationship of church and state then and now. Shocking, disturbing, sadistic, and a brutal harsh reality.
If you can stomach history as it was, do yourself a favor and see The Devils, uncut of course.
Super acting and great sets. You will think and feel as if you were there.
