La Strega In Amore
An ancient Roman house holds a terrible secret. Dust, old books and a morbid and veiled eroticism. Before devoting his career to the so-called cinema civile (political cinema), Damiano Damiani directed his most obscure and mysterious film, a jewel of the contemporary Italian Gothic style. Based on the short novel 'Aura' by Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes, the film is enhanced by the interpretations of the very sensual Rosanna Schiaffino and a young Gian Maria Volonté during the years of his debut …

The album features performances by Hancock on keys, Freddie Hubbard and Joe Newman on trumpet, Phil Woods and Joe Henderson on sax, Ron Carter on bass and Jack DeJohnette on drums. R…

"Musiq…

The French equivalent of the English "Derby Service," the Kiosque d'Orphée, formerly at 7 Rue Grégoire de Tours in the 6th arrondissement, was taken over by Georges Batard in 1967 and moved to 20 Rue des Tournelles in the 4th arrondissement of Paris.

Jeu De Dames (7")
Jeu de Dames, la libération des femmes (1973), a film by director Christian Lara, is a vaguely subversive charm flick that won't be remembered for a long time. An amusing detail, however, is that Georges de Caunes, father of Antoine de Caunes, the famous French TV personality, plays the lead role alongside Danielle Palmero. Faced with this commercial failure, the unscrupulous producer at the time, anxious to save his investments, decided to re-edit the film so that it could be screened in the X-…
