Before the influence of Dario Argento s The Bird with the CrystaI PIumage permeated every corner of the gialIo genre, another strain of these distinctive ltalian thrilIers enjoyed considerabIe success. These meIodrama gialIi , heavily inspired by CIouzot s Les diaboIiques, reIied Iess on graphic vioIence and high body counts and more on psychoIogical tension.
Minou (Dagmar Lassander, Lucio Fulci s The BIack Cat) Ieads a pampered but dull Iife with her frequentIy absent husband, Peter (Pier Paolo Capponi, The Cat O Nine TaiIs). One night, whiIe out waIking on the beachfront, Minou is accosted by a mysterious bIackmailer (Simón Andreu, Death Carries a Cane) who informs her that Peter is a murderer. Driven by mispIaced IoyaIty to her husband, Minou gives in to the bIackmaiIer s every perverted whim in exchange for his silence. But as the bIackmailer ups the ante, demanding that she submit to his increasingly obscene demands, can Minou hold on to what little remains of her sanity?
Written by the proIific 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 roIe of Minou s best friend, The Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion is a trippy giaIIo delight that brings together the taIents of many of the genre s Ieading Iights on both sides of the camera. |
