This is really stylish and gorgeously photographed. The characters are a little underdeveloped until Cristiana and Morlacchi get to the final reel, but it's all so sumptuous, it's hard to be that mad about it.

This is some pretty pure giallo fun, though it felt like it didn't leave a big impression on me compared to the other giallos I've seen where I find myself reminded of scenes or architecture (or Goblin lol). Maybe I need to watch it again.
