yeah Paul you are very right in saying that are a large number of comedy parts in this giallo compared to some but that was one thing I immediately found interesting about this giallo,the blonde as you mention along with the cross dressing disguise and then the safe breaking gag.The way it mixed it with some violent set piece murders ( the roof top murder I think is one if the best murder set pieces from a giallo ) for how much I love this giallo I still think the final is a bit disappointing but it remains one of my faves.
