A Degree of Murder (1966)
Director: Volker Schlöndorff
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Schlöndorff's second film. Pallenberg plays a Munich waitress who shoots her ex-boyfriend in a quarrel, and then ropes in two strangers to help her dispose of the body. She sleeps with both of them, but nothing much else happens on the way to the open ending. Schlöndorff presents it all as a detached observer, and accompanies it with a score by the soon-to-be-late Brian Jones.Author:
