Re: Any other Roeg's films worth visiting?

I would also suggest a viewing of Performance, if it's easy to obtain. It's a true artyfact of its time and as influenced by the non-linear creativity of novelist/artist/collaborator Donald Cammell as much as it is by Roeg.

Performance is a glorious mess, but I'm still quite fond ot it. As a teen, Performance and Blow Up were the first "X" rated art movies I ever saw theatrically. (They were shown locally at a porno house.) Rosemary's Baby was also condemned by the Legion of Decency, but I never took that seriously as it was a mainstream hit.

The Man Who Fell To Earth is interesting but remains a prime example of how too much coke can sink a film.
