- Ken Russell, Georges Delerue
Don’t Shoot the Composer profiles legend Georges Delerue and introduces Ken Russell’s style. It opens with a witty pastiche spoofing noir, then moves to slap‑stick bits, verité of Delerue’s family, and a Vietnam‑war montage. The blend reveals his love of cinema, home life and work ethic, and hints at Russell’s later Mahler and Liszt biopics, presented modestly.
