Salome's Last Dance

1988 • 89 minutes

About this movie

In a candle-lit Victorian brothel, Oscar Wilde sips champagne as pretty prostitutes enact his latest play, 'Salome.' As Salome performs her Dance of the Seven Veils in exchange for the ruin of John the Baptist, life begins to imitate art and the story becomes a mirror of the life of its author.

Ratings and reviews

Ken Russell's last great home movie - a small masterpiece of inspired silliness -Stratford Johns s utterly brilliant - but at the asking price this is an unacceptably bad copy, like a YouTube version or something downloaded from a dodgy torrent site. Not good value for money.
