La ragazza dal pigiama giallo (Italian for The Girl in the Yellow Pyjamas) is a 1978 Italian giallo film directed by Flavio Mogherini, distributed internationally as The Pyjama Girl Case.[2]

Film information

[edit]

The film is based on a real story, the "Pyjama Girl" case, one of Australia's most well known unsolved murders. It was filmed in Australia[3] and produced by studio Zodiac Produzioni, in co-operation with Producciones Internacionales Cinematográficas Asociadas (PICASA).

The soundtrack album La ragazza dal pigiama giallo was released in Italy in 1978, and consisted of the instrumental score by composer Riz Ortolani as well as two songs with vocals by Amanda Lear: the theme tune "Your Yellow Pyjama" and "Look at Her Dancing".[4]

Synopsis

[edit]

The film consists of two parallel narratives. One tells about an investigation of a murder of a girl whose severely burned body has been found on a beach in Sydney. The police have a suspect in the murder, but the retired inspector Thompson is convinced they are wrong and continues his own investigation. The second is a story of a young Dutch girl Glenda and her partner, an Italian Antonio. Although they are in a relationship, Glenda keeps seeing other men.
