“I was starting to feel a bit trapped in eroticism, so I decided to show what else I could do, something romantic and purely fantastic. I think the real star of a film is the book or the script, so in a sense I'm more pleased with that film than any other because it's a part of me.”

    EMMANUELLE

    JUST JAECKIN France, 1974

    A tremendous hit that propelled Sylvia Kristel to international stardom, Emmanuelle made extramarital affairs an instant cause célèbre, and soft-core romps fashionable. Heightened by the beauty of Bangkok and an array of chic outfits, the thrills of this erotic classic are more than just carnal.
