#VendredLecture
Littérature italienne, sur les conseils de la bibliothécaire de mon village.

Un roman policier très prenant de Piergiorgio Pulixi, avec des protagonistes intéressantes et une réflexion sur la justice et la société italienne (occidentale).

Et de Viola Ardone, un roman historique magnifique sur un événement dont je n’avais jamais entendu parler : des enfants de familles pauvres du sud envoyés dans le nord pendant quelques mois (années 40)

Bonne fin de semaine

Tom Ripley is a talented mimic, moocher, forger and all-around criminal improviser; but there's more to Tom Ripley than even he can guess.

This film was remade as “The Talented Mr. Ripley” (1999) for the English-speaking market.

This weekend will afford me time to do a mini movie marathon. I have settled on catching up on my #giallo watching which is currently very limited.

Watching "L'assassino è costretto ad uccidere ancora" (1975). Luigi Cozzi (of Starcrash fame). I've noticed that starting in the mid-70s gialli became more seedy but so far I'd put this with the classic early 70s gialli.

Unrelated: early on, two of the characters are in a theater showing a film called "Il tunnel sotto il mondo" (1969). It's Cozzi's first/student film and sounds like Groundhog Day stole the story. I gotta find it streaming.
