Nicolas Roeg's third film--after the brash PERFORMANCE (1970) and meditative WALKABOUT (1971)--is a haunting thriller that confirmed the director's status as a true visionary. Based on a story by Daphne Du Maurier, DON'T LOOK NOW follows a grieving English couple to Venice, where the past continues to plague them. John Baxter (Donald Sutherland) and his wife Laura (Julie Christie) are in mourning for their young daughter, who drowned tragically near their home. John takes a job in Venice so that the couple can leave the past behind, but, unfortunately, the past is not easily forgotten. While John begins to see unsettling visions of a young girl in a red coat running through the Venice streets, Laura learns from an elderly psychic that her husband is in grave danger. What follows is an eerie, erotic mystery that builds to a shockingly horrific climax. DON'T LOOK NOW is one of the most daring and influential motion pictures of the 1970s. From Pino Donaggio's atmospheric score to Graeme Clifford's elliptical editing (exemplified in the film's notorious sex scene), Roeg's film is a stylistic achievement. Sutherland and Christie are their typical phenomenal selves playing the bereaved, devastated couple.

Confused rubbish.
A very dull,depressing,confusing film with no plot. A complete waste of time to watch and couldn't get it in the envelope to send it back quickly enough.

Central characters well portrayed
Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland are always worth seeing, and their interaction in this film is fascinating and totally believable.

Dont Look Now! Dont Look Ever!
I cant believe I have just subjected myself to an hour and forty-five minutes of possibly the most painfully boring film I have had the displeasure in viewing! ... read more »
