This is good thriller by Peter Greenaway, director famous for his painterly technique, in which renowned architect comes to Rome with his wife in order to present his work. But in the course of visit he is tortured by inexplicable stomach pain and his wife adultery with some Italian snobbish playboy. As the movie progresses, he is certain that someone poisoned him, and in the end, when people are gathered for his speech, he climbs at the top of the building and kills himself. Confident direction, good actors and great score make this movie worthwhile.
