It's been eight years since the last film from Italian master Dario Argento, but we recently got the news he would finally be returning with a new feature titled
Occhiali Neri (aka
Black Glasses). The project would reunite him with his daughter Asia Argento, who would lead the film, following up their last collaboration
Dracula 3D. We now have a few more details on the film, including a mightily enticing tidbit regarding the soundtrack.
"It will be my return to crime films," the director tells the Italian outlet
Repubblica. "It's the adventure, in the nocturnal Rome, of a Chinese girl and child. In the second part, the escape takes them into the rocky, bushy countryside of Lazio. [It's] different from the sweetness of the Tuscan valleys, but for me beautiful."
In major news, he then revealed the involvement of Daft Punk, who will score the film. "They are my admirers, they know all my cinema," Argento says. "They heard from French friends that I was shooting a new film and called me [to say], 'We want to work with you.'" He adds they will be sending him the first tracks soon and make a visit to Rome when it's possible to travel, while also noting the duo think his script is one of his "most interesting."
