Thomas is back in 2021 as the subject of Mark Cousins’ documentary “The Storms of Jeremy Thomas” that details his annual road trip from London to Cannes, while he reflects on a storied career. The film very early on discusses the abundant sex on display in several of Thomas’ films.
“I identified with what Paul Verhoeven said the other day about the neo-puritanism of the new world that we live in because it’s true,” Thomas tells. Thomas says that Arthur Miller’s 1953 play “The Crucible,” which details witch hunting in New England in the late 1600s, is a great text to read in today’s age. He reflects that he probably wouldn’t have had the career he has had today and get money for the films he’s made.
“And the films being full of sex — but then if one’s truthful, life is full of sex, but people don’t talk about it, it’s a private thing,” says Thomas. “But in movies you can talk about it. I chose to allow directors to express ideas that I also held and felt within the movies. And it includes sex, politics, death and all the big things that we deal with in life. And then later on, you look at it and you think, oh yeah, that was very involved in the cinema that I chose to do.
“I could never make it during the pandemic because it involves with large audiences and you can’t make a film about rock ‘n roll and music without everything being completely open,” says Thomas.
