A Butterfly in the Night (1976)

"A Butterfly in the Night" is a vintage drama built around melancholy and desire. It's the sort of feature that leaned entirely on one star's presence to carry it. That star is Isabel Sarli, the Argentine screen icon. She was known for testing the limits of what mainstream cinema of her era would show. Her performance gives the film its charge, smoldering through scenes. Those scenes still feel bold decades later. The site holds 3 scenes pulled from the picture. They catch her nude and unguarded in ways that scandalized audiences at the time. Sarli's willingness to bare herself on screen made her a defining figure in sensual Latin American cinema. Fans of that period will find her rawest, most revealing stretches collected here.
