You said it!Jacqueline Bisset and the much-missed Jean-Paul Belmondo in "Le Magnifique" (The Magnificent). OK, so she's a bit overdressed, but Jacqueline Bisset is Jacqueline Bisset!

You beat me to this one... It seems the actress has a knack for getting tied up in films:
Momentum (2015)
www.imdb.com/title/tt3181776/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
Here Olga plays a thief who comes into possession of something that bad people want. Naturally they do bad people stuff to her, such as electro-shocking her and crushing her leg in a vice.

Although not bloody, the scene is relatively intense, with bones shifting beneath the skin and a good amount of scream-time on the heroine's side.
... and number 3:
Le Serpent (2006)
www.imdb.com/title/tt0486474/?ref_=nm_flmg_i_46_act
To blackmail him with pictures of it, a photographer is drugged and placed in compromising scenes with a shibari-bound model (Olga Kurylenko once again). The sequence is short and more of a montage, but the pause button is our friend.

Manda Scott’s 3,000-page epic Boudica, conveniently separated into four consecutive tomes, tells the story of Celtic noblewoman Breaca, who rose up against Roman occupation and received the eponymous title “Bringer of Victory”. Of course, one biographical key scene is not amiss, either: After the death of her husband Breaca is brutally flogged by order of the Roman tax collector.
Not yet. This is the beginning. The rest will be worse; don’t bring it sooner.
She could not imagine worse. This much was more than she could bear. She opened her mouth and breathed in hot, sweating air and---
Not yet.
She closed her mouth and choked on sweat and old spit and somewhere, somebody laughed and she remembered that they could see her and for a moment, she took the weight on her legs, not her arms, and pressed her forehead to the oak and made the feel of it count against the stunning, blinding, nauseating, endless, endless, endless pain.
A blaze of lightning struck her arms, above her head, and she forgot about her weight and slumped against the ties and the lightning struck her back again, adding pain to infinite pain and the oak was gone and all sense of safety and she opened her mouth and took a breath---
The flogging is almost entirely depicted from Breaca’s point of view, and in a somewhat detached style as she drifts in and out of visions of a shamanic entity that guides her through her battles.
The novel sports a very captivating writing style and an enormous supply of historical knowledge, especially when it comes to Roman military. As to be expected with the choice of the protagonist, the story incorporates feministic motifs throughout its unfolding. However, the women are strong in their own rights, not being elevated by turning every male counterpart into a misogynistic villain or an incompetent fool. Come to think of it, there’s almost no character without some interesting or redeeming qualities about him or her – apart from the misogynistic, incompetent tax collector.
Would like to get a clip of the new Boudicca flogging…looks promising in the trailer…Boudica (upcoming)
Olga Kurylenko, a returning guest to this thread (see below), is starring as Boudica in the homonymous R-rated film which will hit the cinemas on 30th October. For those not in the know: A savage flogging scene is to be expected (see below-below). It is a valid assumption that her role in Centurion (2010) played a part in her getting cast for this film.

Unfortunately the whipping scene won't be as in our dream. Clothed and only few seconds. We must hope for a cutted scene release.Boudica (upcoming)

IMDB trailer<sigh> And all stars seemed aligned...
How do you know (I intentionally haven't watched any trailers not to spoil anything)?
No nudity in this scene isn't good choice in Olga's case. Maybe we will see bloody marks or welts on her back in next scenes after flogging and raping her daughters.Unfortunately the whipping scene won't be as in our dream. Clothed and only few seconds. We must hope for a cutted scene release.
What is the title you saw?I saw a nice documentary about torture in Argentina. A beautiful woman who was allowed to spend a few days on the parilla (grill).
Maybe whipping scene will be dissapointing but photoes with healing her wounds look very promising with rather realistic marks on her back.Boudica (2023)
Roman-occupied Britannia, A.D. 60: When Prasutagus, chieftain of the Iceni, is killed in an ambush, his wife (Olga Kurylenko) is hell-bent to avenge his death.
In a key moment the future Boudica is suspended, flogged and branded for acting against Roman law. However, the scene appears lacklustre and unfavourably shot.

That Boudica remains watchable despite several cringe-worthy scenes has exactly two reasons: the leading actress and a rather short runtime for what could have been a heroic epic. The film starts decent, but unravels in the second and more so in its third act. Do not expect the production value of Centurion or the semi-correct representation of ancient warfare of Barbaren. As for political correctness: Few stories are better suited for projecting the modern interpretation of female empowerment into them, but Boudica steers clear of "fight the patriarchy" and most "Mary Sue" tropes.
I give it IV out of X gladii.
Hope no repost.
