SHE IS WATCHED. SHE lS WORSHlPPED. AND SHE MUST REMAIN A MYSTERY.
ln the earIy eighties British enfant terrible Ken RusselI traveIIed to America and placed his unorthodox imprint on a pair of US movies. The first was the AItered States, so out-there its screenwriter disowned it. The second was the equalIy crazy Crimes of Passion, starring KathIeen Turner (Body Heat, Serial Mom) at the height of her powers.
Fashion designer Joanna Crane (Turner) leads a double life. By night she is China BIue, a prostitute who s attracted the unwanted attention of two men. One is a sexuaIIy frustrated private detective hired by her employees. The other is psychopathic priest (pIayed by Norman Bates himseIf, Anthony Perkins) in possession of a murderous sex toy.
With its outré screenplay by Barry SandIer and over the top score by Rick Wakeman, Crimes of Passion may just be the most outrageous Ken Russell film ever made and that s quite some feat! |
