Double MacGuffin Ep. 4- Savage Messiah (Ken Russell,1972) / Nightwatching(Greenaway,2007)

Henry and I have posted the next episode of our film podcast. Listen on the double macguffin page here…

The theme of this episode is biopics about visual artists.

Henry Griffin chose Ken Russell’s, Savage Messiah (1972) about French sculptor, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska. The film features the young Helen Mirren and Dorothy Tutin.

Jonathan Freilich picked Peter Greenaway’s, Nightwatching (2007) about Rembrandt’s painting of the Nightwatch and the murderous circumstances hidden in the painting. The film stars Martin Freeman as the Dutch master.

Two really interesting movies by iconic and singular British filmmakers.
