It's good to read some interesting stuff about Argento's often maligned era,especially GIALLO and THE CARD PLAYER...what is missing in Maitland McDonagh's update book is a deep analysis of Argento's post OPERA films because,well,overall,McDonagh doesn't like these films (even is she admits that STENDHAL has grown on her)

How come I can't see Guillaume's post?? It says on the board index that he's posted in this thread, but there's nothing here.
