Description
 
This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

Widescreen. In Italian with English subtitles. This film is also known as The Lipstick.

A prostitute is robbed and murdered. A fourteen-year-old girl (Laura Vivaldi) sees a suave gigolo come out of the hotel where the murder occurred. She has a schoolgirl crush on the handsome man, though, so instead of reporting the crime, she befriends him. Only after he takes her out for a drive, kisses her, and the nearly brains her with a glass bottle, does she go to the police. But they don't believe her because, among other things, she wears lipstick. An early neo-realist social drama by criminally underrated Italian director Damiano Damiani. Also stars Pietro Germi as the police investigator.

5 of 5 Excellent quality disc all around January 25, 2024
Reviewer: Ian Z from Thorndale, PA United States  
Damiani started off early with the hard-hitting drama and socio-political commentary.  This disc not only contains an excellent anamorphic widescreen transfer, but as best as I can tell, the subtitles are expertly translated as well.
