Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion

Zavvi

Zavvi - The Home of Pop CultureBefore the influence of Dario Argento's The Bird with the Crystal Plumage permeated every corner of the giallo genre, another strain of these distinctive Italian thrillers enjoyed considerable success. These melodrama gialli , heavily inspired by Clouzot's Les diaboliques, relied less on graphic violence and high body counts and more on psychological tension.Minou (Dagmar Lassander, Lucio Fulci's The Black Cat) leads a pampered but dull life with her frequently 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 blackmailer (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 silence. But as the blackmailer 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 prolific Ernesto Gastaldi (Torso), infused with a seductive score by the great Ennio Morricone (The Cat O' Nine Tails) and featuring a memorable turn by Nieves Navarro a.k.a. Susan Scott (Death Walks at Midnight) in the role of Minou's best friend, The Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion is a trippy giallo delight that brings together the talents of many of the genre's leading lights on both sides of the camera.SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS:Brand new 2K restoration from the original camera negative by Arrow FilmsHigh Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentationOriginal lossless mono Italian and English soundtracksEnglish subtitles for the Italian soundtrackOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for the English soundtrackNew audio commentary by Kat Ellinger, author and editor-in-chief of Diabolique MagazinePrivate Pictures, a newly-edited documentary featuring archival interviews with actress Nieves Navarro and director Luciano Ercoli, and new interview material with writer Ernesto GastaldiThe Forbidden Soundtrack of the Big Three, a new appreciation of the music of Forbidden Photos and 70s Italian cult cinema by musician and soundtrack collector Lovely JonThe Forbidden Lady, a Q&A with actress Dagmar Lassander at the 2016 Festival of Fantastic FilmsOriginal Italian and English theatrical trailersImage galleryReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Twins of EvilFIRST PRESSING ONLY: Illustrated collector's booklet featuring new writing on the film by author and critic Michael Mackenzie
