PUZZLE 1975 (TUBI)

Very well made Giallo.

The gorgeous Senta Berger stars along with Luc Merenda is a well written thriller about a man who is recovering from a bad accident and has amnesia.

Luc is a man named Edward and he is fighting to regain his memory and is being stalked by gangsters who claim he owes them something. They believe he is faking it in order to avoid a debt.

Berger is Sara Grimaldi, his beautiful wife whom he has forgotten as well. They rekindle their love for each other amidst the terror of the mob trying to either collect from Edward or kill him.

Slowly the pieces of the puzzle start to fall into place and Edward realizes that he must again fight for his life in order to live the rest of his days in peace.

This story is very well told and it is, in my opinion, one of the finest Giallo films I have ever seen. The Tension builds slowly and the viewer is easily sucked into the movie. Berger is simply stunning as the woman who is pulled into Edward's nightmare.
