Plot and SummaryA spark between a newly-met couple is snuffed out tragically.
With this tasty genre piece, first-time director Giuseppe Capotondi proves there is life in Italian cinema beyond ponderous glossy dramas and pneumatic sex comedies. Mixing film noir, thriller, love story and supernatural horror, The Double Hour has some of the dour provincial atmosphere and subtly menacing tone of 2007 Italo murder mystery The Girl by the Lake; but it’s more intricately plotted, and takes us into much more intriguing dream-and-reality territory. It also features a standout performance by Italy-based Russian actress Ksenia Rappoport which won her the best actress prize on the Lido.
