Emmanuelle 5 is a film directed by Walerian Borowczyk. ==Overview== In 1985, ASP films (owner of the Emmanuelle franchise since the first official feature) approached Polish director Borowczyk (known for his heavily erotic art films) to helm the latest Emmanuelle feature, and he accepted, intrigued by the idea of giving a new spin to the series and character. "She is free, without prejudice, and she has confidence in herself" he told France's "Cinema" magazine in the April 87 issue. Once in production, however, he was to be in conflict with his producers; first over the casting of his lead actress, and later for his abstract imagery and script. ''Emmanuelle 5'' clocks in at a brief 85 minutes, after the director himself sheared the film of several scenes of dialog and exposition, preferring to lay voice-overs to scenes of erotic visual montages. Shot in English sync-sound, it also features the first American actress to play the Emmanuelle character. The film shoot took place on location in Paris, Cannes, and the island of Réunion from May 26 to July 19 in the year 1986. French distributor AAA gave ''Emmanuelle 5'' a strong push in print ads and promotional posters, all touting filmgoers with the Borowczyk name. A series of six different styles of poster were designed by artist Léo Kouper. The posters all bore different quotes from writer Emmanuelle Arsan, endorsing the work of Borowczyk. Amidst critiques to ''Emmanuelle 5'', there were also rumors Borowczyk didn't actually direct anything but the "film within a film" ''Love Express'' sequence. This was mostly because he utilized a series of assistant directors for certain exteriors, namely the Cannes and Middle-Eastern segments. The film, however, contains his trademark lighting, the handwritten notes and drawings, themes of censorship and hypocrisy. Despite the critical backlash, ''Emmanuelle 5'' did well in France, staying in theaters for 26 weeks, and spawning yet another theatrical sequel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emmanuelle 5」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
