Biography

British film director who aimed to shock, which he did with flair but no subtlety. Beginning as a dancer, actor and photographer, he apprenticed in a rigorous training in BBC art films, after which he turned out to be a middle-aged infant terrible of the '70s. His work included "French Dressing," 1964, "Women in Love" 1969 and "The Devils," 1971.

Russell made four marriages, the last in 2001 to actress Lisi Tribble. He was father to seven children, five with his first wife, two with his second and one with his third.

He died at his home in Lymington, England on November 27, 2011. He was 84.
