Note : I've been saying I want to do more giallo, so here's a lesser-known one, by Luciano Ercoli, who directed eight films in seven years during the 70s, and then, according to himself, "inherited a fortune" and retired in 1977, presumably living the good life until his death in 2015. Good for him, although maybe bad for us, because this isn't a bad giallo at all, although the slightly chaotic plot, as well as a few strange decisions (like having the main actress in what looks suspiciously like blackface) are not the greatest. The cast, which is headed up by an American (playing British) several Spaniards, and a Frenchman, along with the usual Italians, includes Frank Wolff (who sadly committed suicide shortly after this was released, though I don’t think that was the reason), Nieves Navarro (credited as Susan Scott, apparently something of a muse for Ercoli, since she was in all three of his gialli and both his westerns), Simón Andreu, George Rigaud, José Manuel Martín, Luciano Rossi, and Claudie Lange.

Nicole is a stripper working in Paris, who learns that her father was stabbed to death on a train when she's questioned about some missing diamonds. Soon after, a mysterious man begins making threatening phone calls to her, and a distinguished looking gentleman watches her and films her at work. When she's threatened by a man in a ski mask wearing blue contact lenses, and later discovers a pair of similar lenses at her boyfriend's apartment, she flees, and runs into the man who had been watching her at the club, who turns out to be wealthy eye surgeon Robert Matthews. She tells him she wants to leave Paris, and he happily obliges, taking her first to London, then to his remote country cottage, where he tries to pretend she's his wife. He tells her all his money comes from his actual wife, who's very rich. Someone's spying on them, however, and when Robert returns to a trip from London, Nicole is nowhere to be found, and she's later found drowned. Things get even more complicated with double- and triple crossing, confused identities, a mysterious female assassin, a boat captain, and transvestites involved. This plot makes my head hurt a little.

This is a pretty decent transfer, not amazingly sharp, but subtle, tight grain, nice color and contrast, and ok detail. Mono tracks sound fine too, and the commentary with Tim Lucas is worthwhile as usual.

Hot tip

Quote:

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “hevk giallo” for more confusing plots, masked murderers and sexy strippers, “hevk italian” for more Mediterranean actors using English stage names, or “hevk 70s” for more from the decade when strippers in blackface were apparently en vogue in Paris.
