De Sade (1969)


An OK biography of the writer, featuring colorful sets and costumes. John Huston (the most recognizable actor in this film) has a small supporting role as De Sade's uncle. The animated opening sequence is really interesting. Because of the sexuality and nudity in the film, the film was rated "X" when it was released in the United States in 1969. Later, it was rated "R".
