Il margine

In her autobiography, "Nue", Sylvia Kristel said that this was probably her favorite acting role, and that she found it a shame that not a lot of people saw it at the cinema.

The Director's Cut released in Germany on Blu-ray runs almost six minutes longer than the French theatrical version. Both versions contain scenes missing in the other version, as well as alternative versions of Sigimond washing himself in the bathroom and of the scene where Sigimond and Diana play with the egg. The Director's Cut also shows additional scenes in which Sigimond's chambermaid is fascinated by him and unsuccessfully tries to seduce him. The additional scenes of the Director's Cut nicely round off the film. Some of the additional scenes of the Director's Cut come from the German theatrical version and are slightly lower in quality. Presumably, they had access to a 35mm scan here. At one point, they even seem to have resorted to a VHS. In the scenes towards the end when Sigimond is driving in the car, only the French audio is heard, as these scenes were never present in the German version of the film. Optional German subtitles are provided for these scenes. Runtimes: French theatrical version: 86:11 min. Director's Cut: 91:53 min.
