Le foto di Gioia

This has just enough of the giallo about it to be considered a late entry in the genre and whilst it is far from outstanding is perfectly watchable. It is bright, fast moving and colourful but at the same time rather brash with an uninvolving story and the usual crashing 80s score. Serena Grandi may not be the greatest actress in the world but she is outstanding in one (or is that two?!) respects. Another large busted performer, Sabrina plays herself and between them the two girls manage to display a considerable amount of flesh amidst the murderous shenanigans. George Eastman makes an appearance and it is regrettable that his part could not have been enlarged in place of some of the silliness going on around. Daria Nicolodi is a welcome participant and again enlarging her part might have been a good idea. Altogether there is too much time spent on the young guys and creating red herrings when the script is really not up to being taken seriously.
