"The Pyjama Girl Case" is a 1977 Italian giallo film directed by Flavio Mogherini. Inspired by a real-life unsolved murder case that occurred in Australia in the 1930s, the film follows two intertwined storylines set in New South Wales.
In the first storyline, the burned and mutilated body of a young woman, known as the "Pyjama Girl" due to the clothing she was found in, is discovered on a beach. The local police have a suspect in custody, but retired police inspector Thompson (played by Ray Milland) becomes convinced that they have arrested the wrong person. Driven by his instinct and years of experience, Thompson begins his own investigation into the murder, determined to uncover the truth behind the Pyjama Girl's brutal demise.
Meanwhile, the second storyline revolves around Linda (played by Dalila Di Lazzaro), a beautiful and independent woman working as a waitress and a ferry attendant. Linda is involved in multiple romantic relationships simultaneously, secretly seeing several different men while being married to one of them. However, her complicated love life soon starts to unravel, leading to arguments and conflicts within her relationships. Eventually, Linda's husband discovers her infidelity, and they decide to separate.
As the film progresses, the two storylines gradually converge. Thompson's meticulous investigation leads him to uncover a web of deception and cover-ups, implicating powerful figures and revealing a shocking connection to Linda and her tangled love affairs. The investigation takes unexpected turns, with the retired inspector getting closer to unraveling the truth behind the Pyjama Girl's murder and exposing the hidden motives and dark secrets linking the different characters.
"The Pyjama Girl Case" presents a complex and mysterious narrative, blending elements of crime thriller, drama, and giallo genres. The film delves into themes of obsession, deceit, and the complex nature of human relationships while slowly revealing the interconnectedness of the characters and their involvement in the tragic events surrounding the Pyjama Girl murder.
