Revenge of the Pearl Queen

Revenge of the Pearl Queen , Ona shinju no fukush? is a 1956 Japanese thriller film directed by Toshio Shimura and starring Michiko Maeda. This film was one of the earliest Japanese films featuring nudity.

The plot strongly resembles that of the last film of Josef von Sternberg, the 1953 Saga of Anatahan, which told the reputedly true story of stranded Japanese seamen on an island who murder each other for the favors of the only woman.Revenge Of The Pearl Queen was the first of five low budget films produced by the Shinth studio featuring Japanese diving girls ama although this film had no actual ama in the plot. The following year, Shinth released their first genuine ama film, The Girl Diver Trembles in Fear, also directed by Toshio Shimura and starring Michiko Maeda. ........
