If during the course of 2024 Eddie gets tired of his NC 21 lineup and wants a wild switcheroo, this film (with its reaching back to the year 1889 for a plot point involving the events at Mayerling) will give him the "English speaking" portion of the tale. It would play with the Jean Delannoy period noir, LE SECRET DE MAYERLING (1949), which will produce a very odd juxtaposition between FRIGHT's leading lady Nancy Malone and the teenaged intensity of Dominique Blanchar.
Did the lovers get murdered? Was Nancy Malone's character really the reincarnation of Maria Vetsera? Or have we all been smoking just a little something that might provoke a hazy belief in such supernatural shenanigans?
