Blue Film Woman

Blue Film Woman , Bur firumu no onna? is a 1969 Japanese pink film directed by Kan Mukai.

Because 3.5 million yen was the budget imposed on works in the pink film genre, an allcolor production had been beyond the means of directors in the 1960s. Some films had been shot partially in color, using color only for certain scenes, a practise that would continue until Nikkatsu took over the genre with its Roman porno series in 1971. Blue Film Woman was one of the first allcolor pink films. Jasper Sharp writes that director Mukais use of color in this film appears to be making up for lost time, exploding into its supersaturated hues from the very first frame... flooded with prismatic blotches of primary reds and blues and silhouettes of naked female bodies not unlike a more lysergicallyinspired version of a Bond movie credit sequence. The style continues, Sharp writing that the film as a whole is a highly stylised piece.Blue Film Woman is one of the only pink films from its era to survive in a 35mm format. It made its U.S. debut in September 2008, with a new print screened at the Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas. After the viewing, twitchfilm.net judged that it is, a great example of early pinku eiga that deserves to be seen. Its Canadian debut was at the FanTasia International Film Festival. It was shown at the fiftieth International Thessaloniki Film Festival. ........
