Beginning on a rainy day in England before making its way through the labyrinthine passageways and canals of Venice, DON'T LOOK NOW is another in a string of 1970's classics from filmmaker Nicolas Roeg that have stood the test of time for their structural inventiveness and dramatic power. The film, beautifully adapted by Allan Scott and Chris Bryant from the Daphne du Maurier short story, follows a couple, Laura and John Baxter (Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland), who travel to Venice after their young daughter's death and the strange visions that begin to haunt John. Inventively cut by Graeme Clifford and routinely ranked as one of the finest British films of all time, DON'T LOOK NOW is a searing exploration of grief that grows deeper and more haunting with each viewing.
Graeme Clifford is a film editor and director best known for cutting IMAGES, DON'T LOOK NOW, THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, and THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH, among many others, and directing FRANCES and the limited series THE LAST DON, among others.
