The Beautiful Prisoner - 1983 - 7/10
AKA - La Belle Captive
Walter finds a woman laying on the highway, bleeding. The same girl he noticed at the club earlier.
Should he render aid, or carry on with his assignment?
Walter, you see, is an operative in a shadowy, criminal organization.
He drives her to stately mansion, lights blazing against the night.
And in entering, he is soon lost in a labyrinth of locked doors, déjà vu, double identities, illusions.
The belle captive may well have vampiric tendencies, in the best Jean Rollin manner.
Bewitching Robbe-Grillet film will keep his fans mesmerized, newcomers may depart in confusion.
