To start with, I am not a big fan of the Tinto Brass style of films. Many often contain rather stagey sex scenes and there is often a lack of warmth about that. Black Angel or Senso '45 is different. It is the story of a wealthy wife in her older years who is attracted to and falls in lust (can't really call it love) with an SS Officer, pays for his vices of gambling, drinking, smoking and keeping a private room and is then rejected after returning from exile to find him in bed with another lover or girlfriend. Livia takes revenge against Schultz for his rejection by informing on him and his plans to desert.
Anna Galiena is a likable and ideal choice for this movie. She is not young but she is beautiful and she gives a very believable portrayal of a rich woman who finds her husband a bit of a bore but wouldn't leave him in a million years.
