Vanessa (1977 film)

Vanessa is a 1977 German softcore erotic melodrama film starring Olivia Pascal and directed by Hubert Frank.

When she arrives, Prinz Bandor, a taxi driver later revealed to be a magician, delivers her to Richard's palatial home.

Vanessa hires Adrian to run the plantation again and returns to Europe, leaving open the possibility of a future relationship.

Frank shot the film from an incomplete screenplay, which he largely ignored in favor of improvising much of the movie.

"[4] Reviewing the film at DVDTalk, Gerry Putzer described "Vanessa" as "[h]ardly a good movie," but "nevertheless watchable" as an artifact of 1970s cinematic erotica.
