Meandering yet extremely tense
Despite being decades old, Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now remains an uncompromisingly honest and staggeringly evocative motion picture which tackles the mysteries of life, death, fear, hope, love and grief. The movie stems from the pen of English writer Daphne du Maurier, whose works of literature are a rich source for filmmakers - ... read more

" Don’t Look Now (1973), based on Daphne du Maurier’s “Don’t Look Now,” originally published in Not After Midnight (1971). "
"4.6. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Tunne- ja tunnelmapuolella hakkaa edelleen halolla päätä. Mysteeripuoli tuntuu selkiintyneen, mutta raskaiden teemojen ja häiriintyneen mutta tarkoituksenmukaisen leikkaustyylin kanssa silti sekoittaa pään."
Still really effective after all these years
“When I first saw Don't Look Now 4 years ago, I was genuinely unnerved by it, and while it was a film I appreciated more than loved I saw it for the great film it was. Now on re-watch, not only has the impact been left undiminished but I now love this movie. Visually the film is very stylish and haunting, yet there is something very sumptuous and symbolic about it too. The haunting music and sound further add to the atmosphere, as does the screenplay and Nicholas Roeg's superb direction. Don't Look Now also has a great story, it has a touch of poignancy, but it scores best when it is shocking and atmospheric, one scene in particular involving the figure in the red cloak affected me so much I couldn't sleep for days when I first saw it. Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie are note-perfect i” read more
"5 out of 5 Classic. I wouldn't recommend watching this with your family, but are people regularly watching these types of films with their family? Anyway, there's one reeeeeeeeally long and graphic sex scene. I cannot emphasize enough how unending it was, and I didn't need to see that much of Donald Sutherland. "
"Don’t look now. You won’t like what you find. Pass the warning."
" When the subject of surprising endings comes up during any discussions about cinema, one movie that hardly ever comes up is 1974's Don't Look Now. One of the main reasons for this is because it is an ending that goes many the heads of many viewers. If you not one of those types of film connoisseurs that's like to discuss. analyze and dissect a movie's plot, DLN's final scene make comes off as complete surprise and even more complete as an act of total randomness. I can't divulge too much here"
" Notes: Even if I really liked this movie, to be honest, I have to admit that it didn’t really blow me away though. The main issue, I guess, was that there were some big chunks of time during which nothing much really happened. Still, there is no doubt that Nicolas Roeg delivered here a fascinating movie above all thanks to some stellar cinematography and editing. Indeed, the whole thing started with the most nightmarish intro you could imagine. Afterwards, Venice had never look so spooky bef"
