Curiosidades

Night Games is a 1980 erotic thriller film directed by Roger Vadim. It was released in France as Jeux de Nuit.

Production

Roger Vadim had previously made a number of provocative films, including And God Created Woman and Barbarella, whose respective stars Vadim also married, Brigitte Bardot and Jane Fonda.

He was going to make a vampire film starring an ex-girlfriend Catherine Deneuve but postponed it to make Night Games. Vadim said he was "looking for a new Vivien Leigh, about 27 years old" to star in the film.

Part of the funding came from the Philippines and some of the movie was shot there. Other funding came from Raymond Chow of Golden Harvest.

Pickett was a relative unknown when Vadim cast her for Night Games, best known for appearing for three years on Guiding Light. "I went away from the experience transformed", said Pickett. "Vadim has the power to make an actor feel so good about himself, and when that happens you grow. It's part of his magic."

Vadim had to fight to get me into the picture. Chow had wanted someone with long hair and a big bosom – another Bardot, presumably. And here I was with short hair and a boyish figure. Vadim had to explain that fashions had changed since the Bardot era. And in the end, Chow accepted this.
