Thus far, I've only managed to see 'Lucky' via a terrible, pixelated bootleg. Viewed in that condition, it seemed like a total mess, but I recall the masque ball sequence was very impressive (Franco getting his Welles/von Sternberg on, I suppose), and that clip definitely makes me want to check it out again in more watchable form. Fingers crossed an easy way to do so with subtitles emerges sooner or later.

You can find audio clips of the tune but not the scene as it is in the film. Oh well, at least you can see Beba in all her glory. This is probably my favorite Franco film.I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons.

it's cheap on german amazon right now: https://www.amazon.de/Spannender-Kri...1326625&sr=8-5
I enjoyed it and I don't like eurospy! it's better than kiss me monster and two undercover angels for sure. I think rosalba wears a russian(?) uniform in this and there is a hilarious twist where one of the main girls turns out to be a transvestite IIRC.

Apparently the earlier German release (Lucky M. füllt alle Särge) has an English soundtrack. The cast includes Rosalba Neri, Teresa Gimpera and Patty Shephard.

While searching (without success) for the clip as it plays in the film, I just discovered I am quoted in a book on it!!! Haha. I used to post at Latarnia Forums as johnny poveratti (SCTV inside joke). Amazing! I'm still saying the same thing about the film all these years later.
