CRIME BACKSTAGE - ΕΓΓΛΚΗΜΑ ΣΤΑ ΠΑΡΑΣΚΗΝΙΑ (1960)
CRIME BACKSTAGE - ΕΓΓΛΚΗΜΑ ΣΤΑ ΠΑΡΑΣΚΗΝΙΑ is a 1960 Greek theatrical film noir film starring Alekos Alexandrakis, Maro Kontou, Hristos Tsaganeas, Titos Vandis, Aliki Georgouli, Georges Sarri and Dimos Starenios. The writer was from the famous police novelist Giannis Maris.
PLOT: A crime is committed in a theater. The leading lady of a play is murdered in her dressing room, and (the famous) police inspector Bekas (Titos Vandis) will investigate the case. His friend Makris (Alekos Alexandrakis), a newspaper editor, will help him solve it.
Eglima sta paraskinia (I could translate it as Backstage crime), is a highly artistic and a rather suspenseful whodunit movie, written by a master of the genre, Yannis Maris. The acting is great, especially by the two protagonists. Vandis nails the role of Bekas and should have reprised it in another movie. Alexandrakis is full of grace as usual, in a role that suites him well. The rest of the cast give great performances as well. The action occurs during the occupation period of World War II.
