If you loved Tommy, try Altered States
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ken Russell. If that's the register that drew you to Tommy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Altered States is
A basement in Cambridge, 1968, the hum of a fMRI’s cooling fan. A neuroscientist fills a black tank with saline, drops in psilocybin tea, sinks himself deeper each night until the tank forgets which way is up. Mirrors hung in the tank show faces not his. Russell’s fevered splice of Freudian horror and cosmic paranoia: one headlong plunge through the membrane of sanity.
