Short Night of Glass Dolls (La Corta Nottie Delle Bambole Vetro) 1971.
A Journalist's body is found, he is presumed dead but isn't and how he got that way is told in flashbacks while searching for his missing girlfriend.
From something of a slow start, the pace quickened up pretty good, Jean Sorel (the day of the jackal) plays the American journalist in Prague, after a party his girlfriend Mira played by Barbara Bach disappears. He teams up with another journalist and ex partner Jessica played by Ingrid Thulin (The Cassandra Crossing) and is told to back off by the police.
This is a different kind of horror mystery, there is no gore, but dwelves on the psychology of the mind in some way, as how far would a man go to find someone and uncover alot of secrets on the way and who is involved, there is some tense moments, maybe on the edge of your seat times, certainly worth a watch.
