The film looks like a classic Italian Giallo, almost a parody, with eroticism and many nude scenes. Actually, it's a good psychological thriller. The director Lamberto Bava manages to keep the suspense till the end, with a lot of false leads and several suspects. The most interesting part of the film is that the spectator can see the murder through the killer's eyes, his sick mind. Bizarre homicides, beautiful use of colors, cool soundtrack. Serena Grandi and the models are just gorgeous and sexy, David Brandon plays his part very convincingly, just a cameo role for George Eastman, Capucine shows off her class in the small role, the rival. I would like to say thank you to Lamberto Bava for choosing Vanni Corbellini, Gioia's brother, very talented actor. In the end, there are many psychoanalytic themes.... Delirium: Photo of Gioia is ultimately a pleasant, interesting, bizarre and surreal movie.

It was a real surprise! It begins as a classic soap opera, the story itself is by nothing new... a law student named Antonia, attractive young lady, a Cinderella, who eked out her income with a bit paparazzi work, meets a charismatic millionaire and both fall in love... but then it becomes a crime drama and keeps great rhythm, there aren't boredom or sluggishness. The story is always engaging and interesting until the final, with funny, romantic and dramatic scenes, big emotions, solid entertainment. Very good director and beautiful scenery. The whole atmosphere provides authenticity. The actors were very well chosen, in particular Kai Wiesinger as Leonardt Ahrendorff, that has something that makes him for women certainly desirable, and Vanni Corbellini, absolutely perfect for the complex and enigmatic role of Philip Stein. Definitely, the film has story, great actors, drama, love and passion.
