I watched this movie recently and to tell the truth I am deeply disappointed by it. It did not meet any of my expectations from Tinto Brass. You surely expect something special from the maker of "Caligula". The movie is extremely banal and trivial, no passion in the love scenes. Gabriel Garko was not the right actor to play the german macho man. Overall, very boring movie.

Lacks the sensuality and charged atmosphere of All Ladies do it or the "cheekiness" of Cheeky, not least because of the unappealing female protagonist. The film's gesture towards a plot appears perfunctory and non-conclusive. The game is saved by some trademark Brass scenes, such as the embraces of the furtive couple on the beach. As always, cinematography and music are masterful, at least as much of them as it is saved for the viewer of the insultingly non-purposeful English version of the film... Nevertheless, this is still Tinto Brass...

Expectations? Too bad

I've seen most of Tinto Brass's movies now. He's basically a one-trick pony, but he does that trick well enough that I keep looking for one of his movies that might be good. Black Angel isn't it. Typically, it contains a few erotic scenes and the attempt to create a background for these undermines any other value that the movie might possibly have had. The film's foreign title is Senso '45 and is based on the short story Senso, which you can read about online to find out the plot of this movie. There isn't any message here as far as I can tell except a nihilist one that leaves you thinking the characters are all either shallow and depraved or fools or both. Despite the costumes, there isn't any historical context or drama connected with the war. One extra star for Brass doing his one trick adequately.
Wow thats all I can say.
