Puzzle (1974)
8/10
there is some violence
11 May 2023
It's really good, such an unusual giallo and it is really odd that we see the great actor Senta Berger that I have hardly seen her at all although she was in Peckinpah's, Cross of Iron (1977). The central man is Luc Merenda I only saw him the other day in, A Man Called Magnum (1977) and he was certainly used in poliziottescho. There is not as much sex although there is some violence especially towards the end with lighted matches thrown at the lovely lady but she gets a go with a chainsaw, although it is rather unusual at the end. At the start we hear of Merenda and his lack of memory shortly in London but all the action is later in the wonderful town of Portofino. Great cinematography and splendid action of Duccio Tessari that keeps the story going on even if it gets a little confused although we don't need to worry about the nasty man who has a runny nose.
