Peter Brook, 1925-2022

MARAT/SADE

aka THE PERSECUTION AND ASSASSINATION OF JEAN-PAUL MARAT AS PERFORMED BY THE INMATES OF THE ASYLUM OF CHARENTON UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE MARQUIS DE SADE

UK, 1967, Peter Brook

Inmates of a French insane asylum in 1808 re-enact the murder of French Revolution firebrand Jean-Paul Marat in a play written and staged by fellow inmate, the Marquis de Sade. Meanwhile, the institution's director and an audience of bourgeois playgoers observe this "therapeutic" theatrical from a safe distance-until all hell breaks loose. Peter Brook's galvanizing film version of his Royal Shakespeare Company production-one of the most celebrated theatrical events of the 1960s-features Patrick Magee and Glenda Jackson (in her screen debut). "Four stars (highest rating)...Chilling...Brilliantly directed." -Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide. 35mm. 115 min. Special admission $14; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, and those age 25 & under $11. No passes.
