Arrogant bandit Tajômaru (Mifune) is brought to trial, charged with the murder of samurai Takehiro Kanazawa (Masayuki Mori) and the rape of his wife Masako (Machiko Kyô). As the crime is recounted by four witnesses - Tajômaru, Masako, Takehiro through use of a medium (Noriko Honma) and a woodcutter (Takashi Shimura) - all of whom have their own version of the event, the intertwining realities dilute the concept of an objective, singular truth and call into question the tenuous relationship between fact and memory.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>

Outspoken priest Urbain Grandier (Oliver Reed) finds himself accused of seducing a group of hysterical nuns while in demon form by Mother Superior Sister Jeanne (Vanessa Redgrave), who is obsessed with Grandier and driven into a fit of envy when he marries another woman. With the involvement of charismatic exorcist Father Barre (Michael Gothard), the affair turns into a sordid mass exorcism of the tainted convent. With much controversy surrounding its subject matter of religion combined with violence and sex, many cuts were made to the film in order for it to attain certification.<br/><br/><i>Typ: DVD</i>
