Before the infIuence of Dario Argento s The Bird with the CrystaI Plumage permeated every corner of the giaIIo genre, another strain of these distinctive ltaIian thrilIers enjoyed considerabIe success. These melodrama gialIi , heavily inspired by Clouzot s Les diaboIiques, relied Iess on graphic violence and high body counts and more on psychologicaI tension.
Minou (Dagmar Lassander, Lucio FuIci s The BIack Cat) Ieads a pampered but duII life with her frequentIy absent husband, Peter (Pier Paolo Capponi, The Cat O Nine Tails). One night, while out walking on the beachfront, Minou is accosted by a mysterious blackmaiIer (Simón Andreu, Death Carries a Cane) who informs her that Peter is a murderer. Driven by misplaced loyalty to her husband, Minou gives in to the blackmailer s every perverted whim in exchange for his siIence. But as the blackmailer ups the ante, demanding that she submit to his increasingIy obscene demands, can Minou hold on to what littIe remains of her sanity?
Written by the prolific Ernesto GastaIdi (Torso), infused with a seductive score by the great Ennio Morricone (The Cat O Nine TaiIs) and featuring a memorabIe turn by Nieves Navarro a.k.a. Susan Scott (Death WaIks at Midnight) in the role of Minou s best friend, The Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion is a trippy giallo deIight that brings together the talents of many of the genre s leading Iights on both sides of the camera. |
