1993 film by Uli Edel

Body of Evidence is a 1993 erotic thriller film directed by Uli Edel, written by Brad Mirman and produced by Dino De Laurentiis. The film stars Madonna and Willem Dafoe, and features Joe Mantegna, Anne Archer, Julianne Moore and Jürgen Prochnow in supporting roles.

Widely considered to be a vanity project for Madonna and derided for its plot inconsistencies and incongruous dialogue, it marked her fourth film performance to be universally panned by critics, following Shanghai Surprise (1986), Who's That Girl (1987) and Bloodhounds of Broadway (1989).

In France and Japan, the film was released under the name Body. In Japan, Madonna's other 1993 film Dangerous Game was released there as Body II even though the films have nothing in common nor are related to each other in narrative.
