PARTY SCENE FROM "DEATH WALKS AT MIDNIGHT" (1972)

#10: UPHOLSTER YOUR PAD WITH LOUNGING, SMOKING DISCO HIPPIES.

OK, so we're going to see a lot of disco hippies on this blog. A lot of them. Hash-smoking, face-painting, fabulous disco hippies. The kind of disco hippies that come with only two functions: discotheque dancing and languid lounging. The latter is well featured in this scene from Luciano Ercoli's giallo thriller "Death Walks at Midnight" ( La morte accarezza a mezzanotte) of 1972. Here, actress Susan Scott (nee Nieves Navarro) comes back to her queeny friend's pad for a chic lounging party after the discotheque.  You can't even see the furniture for all the lounging hippies and night people. Special details: daisy-age face paint, great use of grouped candles, a quick hint of the giallo-ubiquitous J&B bottle.
