745 - Don’t Look Now (1973)

Just in time for the spookiest day of the year, we take a look at Nicolas Roeg’s classic meditation on death and loss set in perhaps the most melancholic and atmospheric place in the world.  Ah, Venice… Venice in the Winter, that is.  Things get sad and steamy for Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie who play a married couple mourning the death of a child try to move on while on a business trip amongst the canals and labyrinthine alleyways of the island city.  And then people start seeing ghosts…

If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Robert Aldrich’s The Flight of the Phoenix (1965).
