Wissenswertes
Ken Adam based his designs for Wallenberg's house on his memories of his parents' home in Berlin before the war.

Helmut Wallenberg: What frightens you, what you see or what you don't?

Alternative Versionen
In the UK, the BBFC rated the movie X, after imposing cuts to reduce close-up shots of female genitals as well as to edit a scene where a man probes a woman with a penis-shaped loaf of bread and shots of a man throwing phallic-shaped darts at a woman's pubis painted as a target. The BBFC rated the movie 18 for strong sex and nudity, on March 4, 1993, for the Redemption Films VHS edition (later also in DVD) with the running time of 112m. Yet, the BBFC kept 18 rating in November 23, 2004, for the Argent Films fully uncut DVD edition.

Ausgewählte Rezension

Smart and opulent 70's Euro-smut; a visual feast but unengaging.

I first saw Salon Kitty in a provincial Scottish cinema with my school pals; nudity was the attraction, and "X" was the certificate. UK Channel 4 recently screened it during their "Censored Weekend" and, as a middle-aged man no longer completely mesmerised by the (considerable) display of rosebud nipples, I was able to enjoy the extraordinary sets and costumes, the operatic staging (production designer Ken Adams - a man of many credits) and the convincing performances of Helmut Berger as the self-intoxicated, onanistic, ruthless, cynical swine who makes the mistake of abusing the indomitable Madame Kitty (Ingrid Thulin - accomplished cabaret turns and remarkable legs for her age).

Many interesting things are hinted at but not explored, such as the contest between the Nazi/Nietzschean will to power and the subtle strengths of womankind. Many things are inserted for gratuitous sensation (the schoolboy was appreciative!). The film is what it is - European soft porn, an exploitative caricature of history, but well done the makers for giving their smut such a visually memorable vehicle. It was too much to ask for a truly engaging drama as well.
