I received bad information about this film decades ago and disregarded it, thinking I would not like it. Glad to be corrected.

Double Face

Double Face (A doppia faccia). Riccardo Freda (as Robert Hampton), 1969.
😸
Edition screened: Arrow Blu-ray, released 2019. Italian language with English subtitles, or original English dub. Runtime approximately 81 minutes.

Summary: No depictions of violence or harm to animals.

Double Face routinely is slammed for clumsy miniatures in the opening and closing scenes and terrible effects processing in the snow scene right after the opening. Yes, they are terrible. They also are very brief and aren’t going anywhere. Everything else about this movie is quite good, a well-written and suspenseful plot, pretty girls, cool cars, and Klaus Kinski’s exceptional acting seems to have motivated the entire cast into good performances. A nightclub near the end of the film has a line of late 60’s pinball machines.
