Dont
12/05: Don't Look Now is a superb psychic thriller classic with a chilling climax finale.

It's also beautifully shot, setting up the future for Nicolas Roeg to direct motion pictures. He has a great eye. Finally, this is the film that I can say Julie Christie gave a good performance. Her career has been overrated since forever. Julie Christie's chemistry with Donald Sutherland is dynamite with a lovemaking scene that's the highlight of the show.

All in all, Don't Look Now is a must-see.

1/11: Don't Look Now is still stunning, and it's also well-photographed.

Many films about the supernatural and telepathy tend not to work out, but this one is heads and shoulders above them. Thanks to the chemistry between Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland, the ten-minute sequence of them making love and getting dressed to go out is one of the best ever.

All in all, Don't Look Now is a must-see psychic thriller.
