Les confidences de Sandra (1973)

"Les confidences de Sandra" (1973), directed by Jean-Claude Roy, is a French erotic drama film known for its provocative content and narrative. The film stars Marielle Ollivier as Sandra, alongside Agatha Dialetis, Daniel Guillaume, and Robert Darmel.

Plot: Sandra leads a hedonistic lifestyle in Saint-Tropez but finds herself embroiled in a murder mystery after witnessing a crime. She relocates to Paris, where she takes up various risqué professions, including becoming a go-go dancer, an erotic photo model, and a stripper at "Le Fer à Cheval." Her life takes another dark turn when she's lured into a trap by the murderer, revealed to be a psychotic lesbian. In self-defense, Sandra kills her, leading to a comedic yet tragic conclusion where she escapes but is mistaken for the murderer due to wearing her clothes, ending up in a mental institution.

Marielle Ollivier's portrayal of Sandra is often highlighted, with reviewers appreciating her ability to navigate the character's complex journey from carefree to embattled. However, the acting is generally seen as serviceable for the genre, with the focus being less on depth and more on the physical aspects of the roles.
