Default The Bird with the Crystal Plumage – The Archive Conversation

THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE



A stunning portrait in psycho-terror!

Dario Argento nails the Giallo blueprint in The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, a brutal thriller that packs a gory brace of terrifying murders alongside it’s genre defining mix of red herrings, leather gloved slashers and stylish decor.

When Sam, an American writer in Rome, witnesses an attempted slaying in an art gallery, he unwittingly sets the killers sights on himself and his beautiful model girlfriend. But soon, things start to unravel as it becomes clear that the identity of the unknown slayer is very much open to question. Somebody’s killing everyone, who is the evil fiend? Could it be Sam himself?

Argento’s groundbreaking shocker combines eye-popping visuals with a seamy vein of sadomasochism and a lust for violence to create a genre defining movie classic.

- Brand new High Definition restoration of the film from the original negative presented in Director of Photography, Vittorio Storaro’s original 2:1 Univisium aspect ratio

You just have to say it... not point it in a way that looks like someone at Arrow is blind...

LOL...

First Fox Mulder, then Jerry Fletcher... Another conspiracy theorist.


So, what you´re saying is that you make your post the way you did because of me? Thanks...


I´m not the police of everything you post... I just stated the obvious.
You made your remark like someone at Arrow couldn´t read it the normal way.


Just like the question you posted on "The Beyond" forum about the correct opening.
Some moderator tried to answer your question and you reply with "hitting a wall" or something...
Don´t you think that´s a little bit out of respect the people who run this forum and for a company that has made so much to us???

That's just how you read it not how I meant it. I actually was going to include a "" but it looked too sarcastic so I removed it. I simply wanted to inform in case the wrong rating was actually going to make it to the artwork.

You may find that it's the special features or Arrow Videos new intro clip that puts the BBFC rating up..... maybe.

A statement is a little different than a theory...

Offensive remarks are no welcome on my behalf...

If you´re calling me a nut then you must now what it means assuming you´re one yourself.

That's actually a fair point. No point in assuming unless we know for sure.
