The House on the Edge of the Park (1980, dir by Ruggero Deodato)
Today’s song of the day is a deathless little disco song that comes from the soundtrack of Ruggero Deodato‘s legendarily tacky film, The House On The Edge Of The Park. This was one of many songs composed by Riz Ortolani, the John Williams of Italian exploitation cinema.
(This is also the song that Giovanni Lombardo Radice was dancing to in today’s scene that I love.)
Today, the Shattered Lens celebrates what would have been the 72nd birthday of the great Italian actor (and my friend), Giovanni Lombardo Radice!
I’ve shared this scene before but I’ll happily share it again. In Ruggero Deodato’s The House On The Edge of the Park, Giovanni Lombardo Radice shows a bunch of rich jerks how he can dance. Dancing with Radice is his frequent co-star, Lorraine De Selle. Wearing the yellow suit is the equally iconic David Hess.

Today’s song of the day comes from the soundtrack of Ruggeo Deodato’s The House On The Edge of the Park. Composed by Riz Ortolani and sung by Diana Corsini, Sweetly Oh Sweetly may sound like an innocent song but its use in Deodato’s controversial film is anything but that.
