Viewing Notes

After seeing CRYSTAL PLUMAGE on the big screen I really wanted to watch his follow-up feature which I had never seen. Only streaming option was PLEX with ads so I endured a stupid ad block every ten minutes to watch this. NOT IDEAL. So that may have tainted my opinion of the film. It is interesting to see Argento stay in the crime whodunnit mystery for his first three features. I would like to get a good release of this and revisit w/o the advertising interruptions.
