Don't Look Now

This haunting thriller and study of the psychology of grief is one of the most accomplished, and most troubling, films by the British director Nicolas Roeg.

It is a film in which everything seems to have been sacraficed for pictorial effect.

Roeg, for all his artiness and tricks, succeeds in creating a dark and frightening experience unlike anything ever filmed.

Don’t Look Now is a textbook example of using visual motifs to unify a film (maybe to a fault from today’s point of view...)
