A British Picture is the autobiography of the English film director, Ken Russell. Its title was changed to Altered States in the United States.[1]
When the author Tony Fletcher requested an interview with Russell as reference for his biography of the Who drummer Keith Moon, Russell replied that he had already said everything he wanted to say about Moon in A British Picture. The book at no point mentions Moon.[2]
Documentary[edit]
In 1989, Russell also made a documentary film about himself titled A British Picture.[3]
