9/10
Hitchcock with notes of giallo
18 October 2022
This was a great film. I definitely don't want to give any of the plot away. It builds atmosphere with character driven themes dialogue. All the actors and actresses turn in great performances especially Michael Caine and Angie Dickinson. Dennis Franz also doing a great job as the sharp tongued detective assigned to the murder. It has an 80's style Hitchcock vibe, the murder scene is done in a very Dario Argento style that would make him proud. It has a great twist that wasn't expected and an unsettling ending. It paces well beginning to end. The other giallo type theme about it is the nudity as the film opens with a scene I wasn't expecting from an older American film. Highly recommend 4.5/5.
