Wow whoever heard of this one? And more importantly, why was such a boring movie made about her? This is supposed to be a documentary of some untalented satanist artist who was brought up on an obsenity charge back in the 1950's. Whaaa. There are a smattering of interviews -- the majority which are with people way too young to have known her, so why should we take their word on anything? The remaining handful who DID know her look like aging hippies still clinging to the free love generation, but looking foolish in the process. I suppose there really isnt anything much more than some newspaper clips about this woman being arrested because there are barely any photos or film of her. Just some paintings that show a rudimentary talent. The images are crude, but the use of color is pretty nice. That's about it. Hardly not enough to create some pumped up image of her. And do it in such a boring way.

I find it very interesting of how free western society was back then, and how we have became a society of restrictions. I really like how they detailed everything so you can understand. I really appreciate the artwork of this documentary. Very good filming.

If Rosaleen was in the 21st century today she will still be risque and probably one of the most famous poor celebrities alive because of her love of freedom of expression and to be who you are no matter what with pride and didn't care about money or material posessions. A brilliant woman who didn't give a damn about what people thought. Today she would 100% be the mouth behind feminism, LGBTQ, Climate change, PETA,...etc She was very in tune with nature and every being in nature. Police and law looked more as to making her out to be this evil stereotypical witch when she was just expressing herself and being 100% open and truthful about who she was and her desires. Many people today who are like her hide behin prying eyes. I would absolutely love to know how she'd be revered today because she was quite a colorful person and accepted all as who they were. I do believe she would surpass the greatest & oddest celebrities with flying colors. Even big stars like Lady GAGA and Marilyn Manson are mild when compared to Rosaleen. A woman far ahead of her time and I think she would still be hell in heels today and the biggest Diva alive. That is what makes her unique and wonderful because she truly did not care about anything material and would never worship money nor pretend to be anyone else but her. All these celebrities would either love her or hate her and many would envy her carefree soul. There is certainly no one that could even fill her shoes today as hard as they may try. And I still believe she is ahead of our time now. She was the freest person no matter what her circumstances because of her stubborn brilliant strong mind and soul. I don't not worship things that she did nor do I posses her sexual desires at all and we would have nothing in common other than being genuine, raw, and unfiltered. But I do think we could have been dear friends because she had this warmness and kindness about her and didn't judge others unless they came after her character. I do appreciate people who don't hide behind a mask. If you are going to be someone, then do it all without shame and have no regrets as she did. Highly misunderstood and had a spirit that no person could break.

Rosaleen Norton was a precocious young girl, revelling in thunderstorms and not scared of the dark. She was bent on becoming a visual artist, drawing and writing prolifically, as well as studying and collaborating with other artists. She had an interest in the unconscious and understood the human psyche in the terms espoused by Carl Jung, including taking inspiration from dreams and myth, and exploring the collective and her personal shadow. The paintings and drawings are impressive and show a unique vision and talent. Full of sensuality, sexuality, almost surreal. Upon arrival in Sydney for her first show, her work was met with police and mainstream press outrage, particularly at her depiction of * women and mythical beings. The Catholic Church piled on too. She soon became notorious as the Witch of Kings Cross. She openly worshipped the twin deities Pan and Lilith and practiced trances and sex magic, inspired by the work of Aleister Crowley. Eventually the relentless scandals led to the downfall of her high society lover, Sir Eugene Goossens, conductor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. A court also even ordered the police to incinerate two of her paintings. Her life and work are portrayed through a rich montage of elements including audacious recreations stylised drama (Rosaleen is played by actress Kate Elizabeth Laxton). The film weaves archival footage of Sydney & Melbourne in the 50s & 60s, modern dance performance and interviews with fellow travelers and art experts. What emerges is a really great character; a fearless artist and an unapologetic liberated woman. This is the fascinating portrait of a fearless woman outlaw butting up against conservative forces. Another brilliant and creative woman repressed in her time and her output neglected, Rosaleen Norton has been saved from obscurity by this thoroughly engaging and entertaining documentary.
