Cleopatra (クレオパトラ Kureopatora?) is a 1970 Japanese animated film directed by Osamu Tezuka and Eiichi Yamamoto. When the film was released in the United States, American distributors changed the title to Cleopatra: Queen of Sex and released it with a self-applied X rating in an attempt to repeat the success of Fritz the Cat. However, Cleopatra had not been submitted to the MPAA, and may not have received an X rating if it had been. One critic described it as "kid stuff with naked breasts."[1]
