Don't Look Now (1973)
Showing Friday 28th January, 1.30pm
Italy/UK, 110mins, cert 15 choice of Sheila Seacroft (local critic)
Venice in winter: grief, danger, menace, decay, the randomness and inevitability of death, the precariousness of life and love, Julie Christie at her most beautiful, and a little figure in red running, running along the canal edges. This is a horror film for grown-ups, with one of the most shocking of all film endings. Maybe the best British film of the 70s.
Director: Nicholas Roeg
