Can Any Member Identify This Film 2?
Please refer to this link for a visual

Title:"They preferred honest combat to idle gossips"
I remember seeing this film a very long time ago, could be a '60s or '70s production.
Setting would have been in the late 1800s to possibly early 1900s in Italy or Europe. Not certain though.
Both women got into a disagreement or it could have been a dispute over a man. They decided to settle the issue a with a sword duel with an uncertain outcome. Though it could have been a duel to "first blood" only with no intention of seriously injuring or killing the other.
If I remember correctly ( have to stretch my memory a long way back ) the women on the left was more aggresive and somewhat adept with a sword where as the chubby one was not too skilled.
The fight ended I believe when the chubby one threw her weapon down and gave up after her adversary cut one of her large breasts with her blade.
The man in the Top Hat would have been an umpire or second of sorts.
Even though I only saw this film once a long time ago, seeing that image brought a few memories back. Even though the fight sequence was short I thought it hot as the action was aggressive ( not a girlie fight ). The swordswoman on the left brought menace to the scene.
Any ideas?

This movie is "The Royal Flash" with Malcom McDowell, around 1975. Difficult to find.

Not that difficult to find.
Recently released for the first time on R1 DVD.
And here's a link I'm sure Falcon and Bgrsman will appreciate greatly.

Nice clip upload to Runboard.
Smacks of the same plot as Gina Lollobrigida's "Beautiful But Dangerous." Even to the well-fed nemesis.

p.s. The screencap pic was photo-edited up from murky.
