Someone Behind the Door Charles Bronson (Actor), Anthony Perkins

Loose DVD (No Cover) An example of the cover only

This is a solid psychological Italian thriller, at a time when very stylish movies were being made in Italy.... The late 1960s to the early 1970s witnessed the height of the production, and it was not merely the Westerns, but these type of films, too. Bronson got involved in both, mostly the latter, and he worked well in them. They are often quite violent and graphic, and certainly not for all tastes. This particular film does involve some of the violence and sexual themes as many, but is actually more subdued than most.

Very fine performances as usual from Perkins and Bronson himself, the latter doing his usual thing, playing 'The Man". This is a role typical of Italian films, being an "anti-hero", or a hero with serious problems and issues of his own. This element was true and characteristic of the Westerns made in Italy at the time. I therefore recommend this film... as an excellent starting point not only for Bronson's Italian films, but the whole genre of the Italian thriller.
