The UK poster, with art by F.W. Payne and a title without “God.” The adjusted title deprives the ” . . . but the Devil shaped Bardot!” tagline of most of its bite.
The iconic French poster features a design by Rene Peron that, for me, recalls both Bernini’s St. Theresa and Jean Fouquet’s Madonna in the likeness of Agnes Sorel.

Why was the title changed for the British market, rather than simply translated? Why did they leave out ‘God’?
Weird.

I think it was simply inappropriate to use “God” in a movie title then, especially in the case of a movie that was, at that time, one of the most explicitly sexual ever released.
