Thanks MB...(were there supposed to be subtitles?)

I'm glad you said clip 2; if I didn't know to look for ((her)), I would've missed it.

Who has seen the original? Did they have subtitles?

Thanks,


Patti

The original film is in several languages depending on where it was released, but the US version was in English when I saw it in 1977 (and Joan Bennett has a line that is often quoted - but to do so here would spoil things for those who've never seen the film). However, the newly discovered 35MM print is in Italian so I believe what will be shown in theaters will be in Italian and I would suspect it's pretty much a certainty that it will have English subtitles...

It's worth stating, too, that Joan somehow was able to loop her own English dialogue for the English language release print of SUSPIRIA.

In a lot of older Italian horror films, all the dialogue was "looped" (that is, re-recorded) for various language editions by professional actors who did this work in Italy.  I don't think Barbara Steele was able to loop her own dialogue in any of her classic Italian horror films of the Sixties, which I have always thought was a great shame.

So glad we got to hear our beloved Mistress of Collinwood in SUSPIRIA... particularly that line referenced by MB...  (love it!!!!)

cheers, G.
