Four Flies on Grey Velvet
Unavailable for many years, the once lost finale of Argento’s so-called Animal Trilogy is a thrilling hint of things to come.
Director: Dario Argento
Overview
With its audacious visuals and crazy plot devices, Argento’s tale of a musician who accidentally kills his stalker, only to be stalked by a witness to the murder, is a stepping stone between the relative realism of his early work and the irresistible weirdness that followed. Notable for featuring a gay private eye, this was the first of several Argento films whose queer characters, while sometimes stereotypical, were not depicted as villains or predators. This presentation is in Italian with English subtitles.
