Sunday, April 18 - A Quiet Place in the Country

A Quiet Place in the Country (1968) Un tranquillo posto di campagna (original title)

A talented, imaginative painter(Franco Nero)is having trouble finishing any of his paintings. His matron and lover (Vanessa Redgrave) arranges for him to stay at a quiet villa out in the country. Instead of getting any work done there, however, he becomes obsessed with the story of a beautiful and promiscuous 17-year-old girl who was mysteriously killed at the villa during WWII. The older locals (especially the men) are equally obsessed with the girl, and they all end up holding a bizarre séance. But it is only the painter who starts seeing her ghost and eventually solves the mystery. Or does he?
