Cast

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Blue Belle slides comfortably into the apparently still chic hand-me-downs of big sisters Emmanuelle, Black Emanuelle and Vanessa, while conducting her own search for truth, sexual fulfilment and box-office receipts in the ever-dependable Orient. Massimo Dallamano directs in the current soft-core format: a combination of over-upholstered emptiness and frosty sincerity that effectively reduces characters, locations and story to the level of scenery. Actress Annie Belle re-enacts some of her 'real-life adventures' well enough, but Ines Pellegrini's mysterious features lend this voyage its only real spirituality."
