What Have You Done to Solange? (DVD)
Cinematographer Massimo Dallamano (A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS) directed this giallo, a murder mystery set at an all girls school in Italy. Based on a story by Edgar Wallace, WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO SOLANGE? follows the secret affair between a teacher and one of his students. On a romantic boat ride in the middle of the day, Professor Henry Rossini and his student lover Elizabeth witness what they believe to be a murder perpetrated by someone dressed as a priest. Unsure at first, the couple`s worst fears are confirmed when one of Elizabeth`s classmates turns up dead. As more bodies start turning up, Henry finds that he is the prime suspect, forcing he and Elizabeth to hunt down the killer themselves.
