Henry Kenneth Alfred Russell, known as Ken Russell (born 3 July 1927), is an English film director. He is known for his pioneering work in television and film and for his controversial style. He has been criticized as being overly obsessed with sexuality and the church. His subject matter is often about famous composers, or based on other works of art which he adapts loosely. Russell began directing for the BBC, where he did creative adaptations of composers' lives which were unusual for the time. He also directed many feature films independently and for studios. He is best known for his Oscar-winning film Women in Love (1969), The Who's Tommy (1975), and the sci-fi film Altered States (1980). (via Wikipedia)
