Ah, the life of a 1970s Italian giallo director. Wake up, add some fiendish twists to your script, fire the writer when he objects, cast some beautiful women, cast some beautiful men, stylishly film them killing each other, get drunk with Ennio Morricone, argue with the cameraman, argue with the producer, cut some tracks with Goblin, smoke, bed, repeat. And don’t worry about paying any tax.
1971 was a very good year for that strain of noblesse. With the previous year’s The Bird with the Crystal Plumage delivering the genre a blood-spattered kick up the jacksy, a flurry of similarly styled gialli (the plural, don’t you know)
