Terribly made. - Soho Conspiracy review by CB
This is a terribly made film literally cobbled together using a long clip from another film and bits and pieces strung together to embellish the really thin plot. The film is digitally restored but still the sound is poor, apart from the opera excerpts which are well recorded. Amazingly the original story was co-written by the great Italian director Mario Monicelli. I would like to know what he thought of this bizarre effort.
