MILD SPOILERS!!!






The eroticised violence is in a fantasy/dream context so I'm sure it won't be a problem...it's one of Martino/Fenech's greatest films (and IMO one of the best Gialli of the period)....I'm really stoked that Shameless seem to be going back to roots...all this soft core & shite fantasy has not been my cup of tea at all...this will be a major seller for people who didn't pick up the NOShame disc (which I have)....can we now have YOUR VICE (the ONLY one I don't have!) please?....and for the person saying English?...the movie was shot with Italian Lang so that's the way to go

YVIALRAOIHTK would indeed be a great follow up title to Mrs Wardh. I'm probably in the minority here, but I actually prefer Your Vice to Mrs Wardh.

Glad to see this film getting such a good response on here. I know it's been one that fans have been asking for almost since the earliest days of Shameless. I think Shameless will do you all proud...

OK. Another one from Shameless that I haven't seen. I'm sure this will be rectified in the spring.

Excellent news! It's going to be a good day when Mrs Wardh is finally in the UK stores!!

[Gigantor]

Great news Indeed!

Indeed. Certainly, for my money, one of the most interesting gialli out there - especially when it comes to the feminine perspective of Wardh herself - Fenech's most meaty role, and possibly the only existentialist anti-heroine of the whole genre! As for Lang options - we screened it with It audio / Eng subs - audience had no trouble at all...

Be interesting to see what artwork transpires for this one!

I imagine the Shameless edition will have both English and Italian audio like the No Shame edition, the soundtracks are presumably both available to be licensed. I like to watch gialli in English, the often dodgy dubs make the films even more charming. That and although I watch DVDs in their original languages I do get distracted by the subtitles and miss out on the screen action especially it's a dialogue heavy scene.
