the bird with the crystal plumage (1970)


AKA L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo. Point of Terror.
"Let me know everything you saw and heard."
Sam Dalmas (Tony Musante), an American writer visiting his girlfriend Julia (Suzy Kendall) in Rome, witnesses an attempted murder. The woman, Monica Ranieri (Eva Renzi) survives, and appears to have had a lucky escape from a notorious serial killer stalking the city. But something is wrong, and Sam's nagging suspicions force him to investigate further, getting deeper into a bad situation.
A wonderfully set out story, building suspense and mystery as it drops clues into the plot, filmed in Argento's unusual, quirky, but stylish manner.
