Belladonna of Sadness by Directed by Eiichi Yamamoto Screenplay by Yoshiyuki Fukuda, 1973
Belladonna of Sadness (哀しみのベラドンナ, Kanashimi no Beradonna) is a 1973 Japanese adult animated art film produced by the animation studio Mushi Production and distributed by Nippon Herald Films. It is the third and final entry in Mushi Production’s adult-oriented Animerama trilogy, following A Thousand and One Nights (1969) and Cleopatra (1970). Its initial release was a commercial failure and caused the studio to go bankrupt. The film was remastered in 2016 by Cinelicious Pics and has received generally favorable reviews from contemporary film critics.
