your vice is a locked room and only i have the key (1972)
aka Il tuo vizio è una stanza chiusa e solo io ne ho la chiave. Gently Before She Dies. Excite Me. Eye of the Black Cat.
"We rather doubt she died of a broken heart."
Oliviero (Luigi Pistilli) is a writer, obsessed by thoughts of his dead mother, living a dissolute lifestyle whilst tormenting his wife (Anita Strindberg). Then the police come knocking When one of Olivero's women is murdered; the police suspecting Oliviero. Further complications come when Oliviero's attractive niece Floriana (Edwige Fenech) arrives, and starts playing the feuding couple off against each other.
An intelligent and captivating melding of a giallo crime drama with Poe's Black Cat tale.
