One on Top of the Other
dir. Lucio Fulci · 1969
The struggle between desire and morality can lead to destructive consequences in human relationships.
A doctor grapples with the aftermath of his wife's murder, haunted by memories of a past affair and the specter of betrayal. As he navigates a labyrinth of suspicion and desire, the film immerses you in a world where every glance and whisper carries the weight of unspoken truths.
The wife of a doctor (Jean Sorel) is murdered. He had a mistress a long ago, since his wife (Marisa Mell) always begged herself out of engagements because she is a asthmatic. On the other hand, she enjoyed a part time job as a stripper. Did the doctor kill her?
