About
An American author living in Rome witnesses an attack on a woman at an art gallery. Unable to prevent the bloody assault, he becomes obsessed with the perpetrator and begins to make his own investigations. These enquiries lead him further into the path of the deranged murderer at the heart of his search.
Dario Argento's debut feature,The Bird with the Crystal Plumage is a lush thriller that immediately established the director's vivid giallo style. His lurid aesthetic is wonderfully complemented by the luscious Technicolor cinematography of Vittorio Storaro and Ennio Morricone's off-kilter score. This is a nerve-shredding Hitchcockian thriller that packs an almighty punch.
