Aleister Crowley And The Cinema Of Magick, with Gary Parsons – LIVE
The talk follows in chronological order a look at films where Crowley was used as a character to avant-garde films showing various aspects of Thelema. It looks at the work of film makers such as Kenneth Anger and Crowley’s influence on him as well as more mainstream depictions such as Hammer’s ‘The Devil Rides Out’, also including some lesser known European art house films. It will show just how important Crowley’s legacy has been on cinema over the years.
Gary Parsons is a film maker and a graduate in film from Goldsmiths College London whose pervious talks include ‘Witchcraft Documentaries Of The 1970’s’ and has been interviewed for both Dazed and Hero magazines about the subject.
