"19.5. 2023 An American man who looks 100% Italian witnesses a murder and becomes so obsessed with the murder case that it endangers his relationship with his girlfriend. "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage" is known as one of the films that made giallo genre famous but I don't see anything special about it.

" Dario Argento is a very hit-or-miss director, and this was a fucking miss. As I had bitched in section# 1 of this diary, giallo can be a very grating genre. In this film, you have to sit through a lot of badly written police procedural dialogue, dry tableaus of Tony Musante acting like a moron, and plot twists that they shouldn't even have bothered with. You see elements of greatness, for example the murder scenes are extremely well shot and look very glamorous. Argento was just settling in"
