She must be a 32A! Compared with modern pictures of her, she's not naturally flat chested so she'd have been in puberty in the film.
Great!.......
I'm on a laptop a long way from home with no way of checking eMule for availability but I can immediately find this as a torrent. This could be yet another excellent opportunity for a new member to contribute by bringing something here. No problems about the age limit either 'cos admin around here are pretty flexible too!
Then we can all move on.........
I just got a chance to watch this. It's not a childhood movie at all and I couldn't find a DOB for Imogen Millais-Scott on over 30 web sites. Being flat-chested doesn't mean she was a teenager, and the lack of biographical information to verify her age makes me suspicious. I doubt even Ken Russell would cast a minor in such a "revealing" role but he wouldn't mind hinting at showing a nude underage girl just for the notoriety. I don't have any evidence that would stand up in court, but I strongly doubt there were any children in this film.
That said, I found the movie itself pretty boring and agree for once with most of the major critics, even though the IMDb reviews were glowing. One stated the going price was $100 on Amazon - I might buy it for $3 from the WalMart bargain bin if I hadn't seen it before.
I spent too much time reading reviews and articles and nostalgically remembering the films of director Ken Russell, so multiple posts were made before I finished my own post.
Short version: This movie is Off-Topic but I absolutely want it, so thank you very much Skalman!

If you read the previous post and still want it?
Well yes, thank you very much! After downloading I see it looks gorgeous, so it makes a fantastic upgrade to my now-rare DVD. But I must confess that I never expected that this movie would be at FLM.
I have to declare that this movie is OFF TOPIC.
Of course it is still eligible to be shared, but it is only fair to categorize it properly as warning to possibly unsuspecting FLM Members. I never believed actress Imogen Millais-Scott was an actual child, but rather a young woman. There is no information online about her birthdate, just about her health struggles. Still, her age has been mentioned.
This review says she was 19 when cast: https://frockflicks.com/tbt-salomes-last-dance-1988/
This Guardian article about her health issues has her as 33 in 1999, thus born in ~1966: https://www.theguardian.com/society/200 ... eandhealth
Regardless of her actual age, interested and forewarned individuals can enjoy it. It is a good idea to do your own reading about this movie and Ken Russell's films in general.
