What's ken Russell's problem iconic British films lost their way with England, Emmanuelle but films like carry on screaming are true classic and should be respected, not reduced to "crap"
Just a reactionary ole queen winding up the proles . . . and thats Ken Russell by the way . . . Savage Messiah is the bollocks mind and well worth checking out.
The carry on's were the best films made in britain, but unfortunately because of the narrow minded attitude of modern society where you're too scared to breath heavily for fear of someone claiming descrimination. These films are no longer acceptible, which is completely wrong!!!
Very true - Ken Russell is entitled to his opinion but whether he is talking out his backside or with sense, I ask this: how titles of Carry Ons films can you recall and how many of his films/works can you recall, and I would suggest the one with the least recalled titles is the ones that should labelled as 'crap, let's dump it, we can do better things and would rather forget it". ;-\
I've just discovered the Carry On films and think they are a hoot. Ken Russel is a pretentious twit. Nothing wrong with some silly, escapist humor. A good laugh to forget the troubles of the day. I live real life, movies are entertainment. Thank you Kenneth, Charles and Hattie for giving people such belly laughs!
The sad thing is that so many of the stars had such unhappy lives.
Ken Russel, LOL, what a joke, the guy is nothing but a talentless, pretentious, hack. Just look at his work, worthless junk dressed up as "Art" with no true meaning or merit at all. Just listening to his end speech really shows why his attempts at "deep" movies are always so off base, the guy clearly has no understanding of people at all, they laugh at Carry On's because of enjoying other people misfortune?!?! what?! I'm sorry but as far as I'm concerned Carry On's are always upbeat and fun.
i thought the carry ons were the funniest comedies ever. Of course the main cast came from Hancock's half hour like Sid & Kenneth and Hattie & there were some classic politically incorrect moments which is so refreshing in this staid PC world we are forced to live in today.
Ken Russel is entitled to his opinion as we are all entitled to one but what he fails to remember is, and I quote Paul Weller, "The public gets what the public wants" and for years the public wanted Carry-Ons
in answer to the "why don't we stand up and say it's crap question" etc....I think the reason the films are so popular with me (I'm 40) is that I grew up knowing those faces. So while everyone on TV, in the cinema and even my life changed as the yearswent by - these same old smiling faces were always there. Same goes for Dad's Army, Are You Being Served, Rising Damp etc. Familiarity. That's my theory anyhow!
The trouble with people like Ken Loach is that snobbish attitude to not only movies but also songs. The real reason that there were so many movies made, is because we the public wanted them. Entertainment comes in many forms, and if you don't like something then don't watch it.
To the idiot at the end of this nasty documentary ..... we don't say " It's crap and forget it" because it's not crap and we like it. It had the ability to help us laugh at ourselves and at the human condition and it didn't take itself seriously ! Carry On was a good laugh and still is and "Up The Kyber" is a must for Xmas. Gawd Bless 'Em All.....
