Monica StambriniGUEST
Before I was talking about eroticism that is often seen as a sin.
Monica StambriniGUEST
Actually, there is maybe only one director, Italian director that is totally the opposite is Tinto Brass.
Monica StambriniGUEST
So Tinto Brás in all his movies, sex and eroticism is also natural and joyous and there's nothing perverse.
Monica StambriniGUEST
No, it's just as it is.
The MadamHOST
Join us in two weeks where, you know, you guys love it so much that we feel like we have to do another episode on this.
The MadamHOST
So we're doing Tinto Brass Part 2, Electric Boogaloo.
The MadamHOST
No, just stop.
The MadamHOST
Okay, I meant me.
The MadamHOST
Okay, yes, two weeks.
The MadamHOST
Tinto Brass, Volume 2.
The SirHOST
Hell yeah.
The MadamHOST
Until then, we are the Spencer Bears, and have fun in bed.
Rachel WaltherCORRESPONDENT
It's grimy and campy and just relentlessly grim.
Rachel WaltherCORRESPONDENT
I was asking myself while watching, why has this film remained unavailable all these years when many other movies that are way more explicit, like Tinto Brass' Caligula, came out decades ago in a splashy DVD box set? And I think the answer lies in the fact that by the end of the film, the madness in The Devils is in no way gratuitous.
Rachel WaltherCORRESPONDENT
Russell's message about the evil forces that control our world remains as prescient as ever.
Rachel WaltherCORRESPONDENT
While Caligula is just bawdy crap, the devil's remains dangerous, and it's unforgettable.
ChrisHOST
If the bootleg thing falls through...
ChrisHOST
We're skipping two spots ahead and doing Tinto Brass's Deadly Sweet.
KoryHOST
All right.
KoryHOST
And where can we find you on the internet, Chris?
JimmyHOST
Guccione's project was Caligula, and on paper it was the most ambitious thing a men's magazine publisher had ever attempted.
JimmyHOST
It had a screenplay by Gore Vidal, direction by the Italian filmmaker Tinto Brass, and a cast that included Malcolm McDowell, Peter O'Toole, Helen Mirren, and more A-listers.
JimmyHOST
Shooting took place in Rome in 1976, and the budget ballooned past anything a film like this had any business costing.
JimmyHOST
Di Lorenzo was cast as Messalina, a supporting role Guccione handed her personally.
AlHOST
She's in one of my favorite Italian films from the 60s called Divorce Italian Style, where she plays opposite Marcello Mastroianni.
AlHOST
She was in a film that was quite impressionable upon me at 13 years old called The Key, or La Chiave, directed by Tinto Brass.
AlHOST
And if you know anything about Tinto Brass, you know exactly how impressionable his films could be to a young man.
AlHOST
Yeah.
AlHOST
She doesn't appear a whole lot, but she plays a kind of key part at the climax of this film.
Jake BostonHOST
I don't even know what I can show on these.
Jake BostonHOST
Um, we got some Tinto Brass stuff from Cult Films.
Jake BostonHOST
We have Salon Kitty.
Jake BostonHOST
Very exploitive movies for sure.
Jake BostonHOST
Look at, look at Miranda.
Jake BostonHOST
That, that just looks cute, right? Uh, yeah.
Jake BostonHOST
This one is not as brass, but, uh, Tinto Brass.
Jake BostonHOST
I guess I should...
Adrian SmithHOST
I think they split up not long before he died.
Adrian SmithHOST
And then she ended up starring in a Tinto Brass film.
Adrian SmithHOST
So she actually had quite a good career in the end.
Adrian SmithHOST
So he kind of helped her in a way.
