A movie that opens with Louis XIII dressed as Botticelli's Venus, emerging from a half shell in a court tableau (to throw Tiny Tim kisses to his audience), is obviously a movie less interested in coherent thought than in spectacle. 



This includes crucifixion fantasies, in which Sister Jeanne of the Angels, Grandier's chief accuser, sees herself licking the blood off Christ's (Grandier's) hands, exorcism by enema, tortures, vomiting, and the final immolation.
