Review of Don't Look Now (1973) by Travis E — 12 Jul 2010
A classic of both horror and drama genres containing not only the greatest sex scene of all time (and allegedly unsimulated-and damn me if the old boy donald don't have some moves on him) but also one of the most emotionally shattering endings of all time. I can liken the irrevocable sense of impending, inevitable doom to the atmosphere of a shakespearan tragedy, which is the highest praise any work of art can receive.
Some may watch the ending and find it opague but it is a perfect end for the film, and one, like the ending of 2001,that distills the thematic and narrative underpinnings of the story in a flawless sequence of images.
