Well, you are almost correct ;) The title is Gods and Monsters. The 'world of gods and monsters' is a reference to Whale's Frankenstein.  :) Highly recommended film, with top acting.

Your turn on the board.

Sorry, I own the movie and didn't think about how many others would have the same name!  :tomato:

Francis Bacon the English painter

:hmmmm: I'm not sure - I'm trying to play the games without looking things up. I went to an exhibition of Bacon's works recently and that's what made me think of him for this game. I thought he was English, but you may very well be correct.

Hint: Written and directed by John Maybury (source: DVD itself!)

Love is the Devil... but I had to IMDb'd it  :bag:

Did you remember what you couldn't remember yet? :wacko:

SailorRipley

Yup, well, it's actually the same movie, Love is the Devil. But since it has a lot of the actors Derek Jarman uses in his films and Maybury was something of a pupil for him, I always think of it as 'the Jarman film'.  :)

How's this?


Alright...

T.S. Eliot

Thanks for the champagne! Do we get a hint on T.S. Eliot - or is it IMBD time? My brain hurts from thinking! :surrender:

SailorRipley

Hint... hum... it stars Willem Dafoe and Miranda Richardson. Does that help?  ;)
