Actress Sylvia Kristel, the Dutch star of the hit 1970s erotic movie "Emmanuelle," has died of cancer at age 60. The movie has been seen by an estimated 350 million people, and although she went on to make over 50 films and won awards for her writing and directing, Emmanuelle was what she was always known for.
I never saw the original Emmanuelle, but when I was in HS I saw Emmanuelle in Space on Cinemax (I think) and it was AWESOME. Some ones to look for now are The Devil Wears Nada and The Hills Have Thighs. God, they're so hysterical.
ReplyDeleteI have seen these movies! I remember them from when I was young. They were on HBO or something like that. Early '80's I think.....that's all I remember is the name, and she was naked. ;)
