Ken Russell, Whore, 35mm on VHS, 85min., 1991
Theresa Russell (Bad Timing, Wild Things) delivers a tour de force performance in the world’s oldest profession, delivering monologues in direct address for this madcap blend of video store verité and schlock sensationalism. The final theatrically-distributed feature by legendary director Ken Russell (The Devils, The Who’s Tommy) was filmed largely in DTLA, but found its legs on the video market thanks, in large part, to its succinct and salacious title.
