The film was made for the 2009 DVD (Anolis / Germany) ofr the Freda / Bava film I VAMPIRI (aka Lust Of the Vampire, 1957). I just saw it today for the very first time (as part of splendid new German Blu-ray deluxe box) and I am delighted I did! Being a film historian myself I know the Swiss-born actor Paul Muller of course, he acted in more that 200 European films! But this being the age of "genre film fans", film lovers mostly remember him now for his work on trash-master Jess Franco's sleazy exploitation films. Not my cup of tea really (besides Soledad of course) and I always was fascinated that Paul Muller had been in so many more classy films before. Rosselini, Anthony Mann, Becker...
People who experienced the European film business from the late 40s till the 80s have a lot of stories to tell. And it's wonderful that some of us care to document them for future generations! (I do my share documenting the life & films of Sam Peckinpah among others). Ginster, Rink & Lange did a great job getting these anecdotes on film, and some of them are absolutely hilarious! Just great and fascinating. Bava, Riefenstahl, Cocteau, Harlan... here you get everything! Highly recommended !!
