Reviews
Powerful
Brilliant and touching
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This Italian crime flick deserves to be better known, and probably would be if its cast included any of the now popular stars of so-called 'Eurotrash' or 'Eurocult' cinema. Alas, all it has is Dana Andrews as a jewelry salesman with some cursed gee-gaws in his possession. Instead of the bankable Edwige Fenech, Janine Reynaud or Delphine Seyrig in the title role, Ursula is played by the unheralded French actress Jeanne Valérie (previously seen to better effect in 1965's Espionage In Lisbon), who spends the film wearing an ill-fitting wig and making little impression. The film benefits from a lush theme song crooned by Alida Chelli and looks nice enough (or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Something Weird Video's VHS is in reasonably good condition, though it's pan and scanned). Not so much an overlooked gem as a pleasant surprise.
