What would "From Venus With Love" be in French? I don't trust any of the translation sites and my French is virtually non-existent.

One of seven films I'm inventing for the Weinbaum game...

Later According to a native French speaker on the [livejournal.com profile] little_details community, Bon Baisers de Vénus is the nearest idiomatic translation that has the ambiguity I want. It's not really important to the plot (it's basically a little something for background detail that may never even be used) so I'll go with it.

That's as far as my schoolboy French took me. Though I wonder: "From Russia With Love" works in English because "From X With Love" is a standard English phrase, so you really need the equivalent French phrase. Whatever that is.
