Wissenswertes

Rope and Skin is a 1979 Japanese film in Nikkatsu's Roman Porno series, directed by Shōgorō Nishimura and starring Naomi Tani.

Background

Rope and Skin was "Nikkatsu Queen" Naomi Tani's last film. Her retirement, while still at the top of her popularity, came as a surprise to her audience. When Nikkatsu first started its Roman Porno series in November 1971, the films alternated between contemporary stories, and period dramas. As the series progressed into the later 1970s, budgets were lower, and the films began to use almost exclusively contemporary settings.

The famous Toei yakuza-film screenwriter Isao Matsumoto wrote the script based on a story by Tani's frequent collaborator, the SM-author Oniroku Dan. Many critics have commented on Rope and Skin's similarity to the Toei style, and Tani's character to the lead character of the Red Peony series. In their Japanese Cinema Encyclopedia: The Sex Films, the Weissers give Rope and Skin a rating of three and a half points out of four.
