H. Lawrence's book The Music Lovers (1971)--"biography" of Tchaikovsky The Devils (1971)--based on Huxley's DEVILS OF LOUDON (*) The Boy Friend (1971)--homage to Hollywood musicals Savage Messiah (1972)--story of the love affair between sculptor Henri Gaudier-Brzeska and Sophie Brzeska Mahler (1974)--"biography" of Mahler (*) Tommy (1975)--rock opera Lisztomania (1975)--"biography" of Liszt Valentino (1977)--"biography" of Valentino Altered States (1979)--remake on MONSTER ON THE CAMPUS with psychedelic effects, but some stunning visual scenes (*) Crimes of Passion (1984) Russell's "biographies" of famous composers and actors seem to concentrate on bizarre aspects of their sexuality which may or may not be true.
