Synopsis: Age Of Consent is the story of an ageing
artist played by James Mason who believes he has lost his former ability and is
now too old. He is convinced by his agent to take some time on an island away
from it all. On arriving he meets a young girl (Cora) played by Helen Mirren
who gives him the inspiration he needs. Contains some nudity.
Michael
Powell's final feature film is about an artist (James Mason) who runs out of
inspiration and retreats to the Great Barrier Reef with his young model (Helen
Mirren). “The film was full of nudity,” wrote Powell, “but it is
a painter's nudity.” Filmed mainly on Dunk Island (now the Reef's priciest
resort), it is undeniably beautiful and filled with engaging characters. Mirren
is not the only actress who takes her clothes off; so does Clarissa Kaye, who
later became Mason's real-life wife.
The film is loosely based on the
life of Norman Lindsay, the artist on which the 1994 film Sirens is also
based.,
