DEADLY SWEET (COL CUORE IN GOLA)
Starring 17-year-old beauty-contest winner Ewa Aulin (CANDY), and Jean-Louis Trintignant (A MAN AND A WOMAN), Deadly Sweet is a most unusual crime story. In the film, a French actor finds his business contact lying murdered on the floor. Rather than call the police, he decides to protect the young woman at the scene and nail down the true killers, which puts him on a collision course with the London underworld. Deadly Sweet leads us through a mind-bending series of pop-art visuals by renowned erotic cartoonist GUIDO CREPAX, split screens, triple split screens, and the seductive rock score by Armando Trovajoli. Bestselling filmmaker, Tinto Brass, who later gained fame for his soft-core erotica, wrote the screenplay in 1967, loosely adapted from a novel by Sergio Donati, as an outrageous attempt to turn the crime genre on its head. It can be said that with this film, Cinema Fumetti (comic-book movies) was invented prior to the more known DANGER: DIABOLIK and BARBARELLA.
Cult Epics is proud to present Deadly Sweet (aka Heart in his Mouth), a rare giallo thriller unseen since its initial theatrical release (1967), whose lead actors went on to star in DEAD LAID AN EGG, a year after.
Anyone who likes the combination of Jean-Louis Trintignant and beautiful women, owes it to themselves to check out the Bernardo Bertolucci film The Conformist, one of the most beautifully shot films you will ever see. Storaro the film's cinematographer, would then go on to shoot Apocalypse Now (he was hired because of how impressed Coppola was with how beautiful his camera work for the The Conformist was).

Ewa Aulin was and still is the most underrated and underappreciated actress of all time.

Does this film have a segment shot at the 14 Hour Technicolor Dream event in London that year?

Ewa Aulin, like every other film she was in, 'made' this.
