They looked so handsome and beautiful and yet they seemed to have a terrible problem and I watched them with sadness. In the film, John was too late to save his daughter but something told him that things were not right; as he rushes outside, Laura asks him, whats the matter?. "Daphne du Maurier's genius lay in her plots, which she spun with astounding originality and ease. It was initially difficult for Roegs team to get permission to film in a suitable church in Venice but then they found San Nicolo dei Mendicoli. This story rolls out like an inescapable nightmare. [20], The score was composed by Pino Donaggio, a native Venetian who was a popular singer at the time (he had a hit with "lo Che Non Vivo" which was covered by Dusty Springfield in 1966 as "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me"); prior to Don't Look Now, Donaggio had never scored a film. [36], At the 27th British Academy Film Awards, Anthony B. Richmond won for Best Cinematography, and Don't Look Now received further nominations in the Best Film, Direction, Actor, Actress, Sound Track and Film Editing categories. This is what the inhabitants who live here see, he thought. The scene was in fact an unscripted last minute improvisation by Roeg, who felt that without it there would be too many scenes of the couple arguing. One of du Mauriers most brilliant and disturbing works, Dont Look Now tells the story of married couple John and Laura who, while on holiday in Venice grieving the loss of their child, meet two sisters, one of whom is a psychic and claims to have seen their dead daughter sitting beside them. [3] Penelope Houston for Sight & Sound also found much to appreciate in Roeg's direction: "Roeg deploys subtle powers of direction and Hitchcockian misdirection. Critics such as Gina Whisker have shown that the use of the coat presents the dwarf as a perversion of the figure of Red Riding Hood from fairy tale tradition. The sight of the three women dressed in black cannot help but appear as a dark omen for John. The intensity and intimacy of the scene was so credible, however, that it led to (incorrect) rumours that it was not in fact simulated at all. Jay Cocks regarded Don't Look Now to be Roeg's best work by far and that Roeg was one of "those rare talents that can effect a new way of seeing". [56], At the time of its initial release, Don't Look Now was generally well received by critics,[41] although some criticised it for being "arty and mechanical". "Albert Roeg was resistant to any changes and issued Sutherland an ultimatum. [60], Roeg's use of Venice was praised too, with Roger Ebert finding that he "uses Venice as well as she's ever been used in a movie",[46] and Canby also noted Venice is used to great effect: "He gets a great performance from Venice, which is all wintery grays, blues and blacks, the color of the pigeons that are always underfoot. This article is about the film. The screenplay for the film was written by Allan Scott and Chris Bryant, but Roeg was intensely involved in the editing and cutting of the film, and a number of crucial elements arose out of the process of filming itself. Roegs sensitivity to du Mauriers visual style and to the mechanics of her plot structures means that, in the main, his alterations enhance and enrich her creation, rather than feeling like a directors attempt to stamp his own mark on a narrative. [58] Cocks felt that thanks to their superb performances the film had a "rigorous psychological truth and an emotional timbre" that most other films in the supernatural genre lacked. After speaking to her to confirm she really is in England, a bewildered John returns to the police station to inform the police he has found his wife. Roeg commented that du Maurier was a true writer and understood about translating a story into another medium (Sanderson, p.79) and in his film he made a number of changes to the plot and imagery that enable the story to work more effectively for cinema.

I'm going to keep this short. Like Laura, with her chin held high, she stares resolutely on. [58] Pauline Kael writing for The New Yorker was more reserved in her praise, considering the film to be "the fanciest, most carefully assembled enigma yet put on the screen" but that there was a "distasteful clamminess about the picture",[25] while Gordon Gow of Films and Filming felt that it fell short of the aspirations of Nicolas Roeg's previous two films, Performance and Walkabout, but it was nevertheless a thriller of some depth. The American censor advised Nicolas Roeg explicitly, saying, "We cannot see humping. In a 1973 interview Roeg described himself as a great admirer of Daphne du Maurier, shes an extraordinary writer. WebWhen Daphne du Maurier wrote the short story "Don't Look Now," sometimes referred to as a novella for its length, she was firmly established as a popular writer. The meaning of the opening sequence gradually unfolds and becomes recognisable as the film progresses. She grew up in London and Cornwall, where she would settle as an adult.

And unlike Hitchcock in his adaptation of Rebecca (1940), Roeg wasnt hampered by the requirements of the censors, despite the controversy caused by the notorious sex scene. Don't Look Now (Italian: A Venezia un Dicembre rosso shocking, lit. Roegs amplification of this scene is crucial to his interpretation of John and Lauras relationship in the film and he deliberately wanted to show a sensual scene of married love not only to demonstrate the depth of their affection for one another but also to provide the possibility of hope for the future. [15], Communication is a theme that runs through much of Nicolas Roeg's work, and figures heavily in Don't Look Now. The young man tried to cheer his wife up but to no avail and it struck me perhaps that their child had died of meningitis (quoted in Sanderson, p.80). Extras include an introduction by film journalist Alan Jones, an audio commentary by director Nicolas Roeg, a retrospective documentary featurette ("Looking Back"), an extract from a 1980s documentary about Roeg ("Nothing is as it Seems"), and interviews with Donald Sutherland, composer Pino Donaggio ("Death in Venice"), scriptwriter Allan Scott, cinematographer Anthony Richmond and film director Danny Boyle, as well as a "compressed" version of the film made by Boyle for a BAFTA tribute. [53][54][55], A new DVD and Blu-ray release with a 4K digital restoration was released in 2015 by The Criterion Collection. [11] The threat of death from falling is also ever present throughout the film: besides Christine falling into the lake, Laura is taken to hospital after her fall in the restaurant, their son Johnny is injured in a fall at boarding school, the bishop overseeing the church restoration informs John that his father was killed in a fall, and John himself is nearly killed in a fall during the renovations. WebDu Maurier is of course world famous for many of her novels. [73][74][75] Similarly, Ryan Murphy considers his TV series American Horror Story to be a throwback to '60s and '70s psychological horror, citing Don't Look Now, Rosemary's Baby and The Shining as particular examples. A farmer on the neighbouring land volunteered his daughter who was an accomplished swimmer, but who refused to be submerged when it came to filming. [36], The only disagreement over the musical direction of the film was for the score accompanying the love scene. Opening with Christines death is a striking alteration to the tongue-in-cheek fantasy of du Mauriers opening in which John and Laura see the sisters in a restaurant on Torcello and they imagine all sorts of pretend lives for them, from retired Australian school teachers to jewel thieves and murderers in drag. A married couple on holiday in Venice are caught up in a sinister series of events.

The film's financiers were pleased with Donaggio's work and overruled the producers. There is, in fact, a murderer hiding in plain sight in this city and the Baxters encounter with the sisters initiates a plot that ends in brutal death. John and Laura are vacationing in and around Venice in an effort to bolster themselves and put some distance between themselves and England where their daughter, Christine, died from natural causes. The critic Neil Sinyard describes its crucial importance to the film because the sense of pain established in the opening will carry through to the end, making it difficult to imagine that anything but tragedy could await after such a scene (Sinyard, p.48). This is the true life. In a move that is typical of du Mauriers own fiction, everything in the film seems to have its double Christine and the dwarf, the dangerous water of the pond and the Venetian canals and a duality of meaning. In the famous opening scene of the film, Laura and John are inside the house while Christine and her brother Johnnie play outside by the pond, and John has a sudden premonition that something is wrong and he rushes out of the house to find Christine under the water. Donaggio composed a grand orchestral piece, but Roeg thought the effect was overkill, and wanted it toned down.

On a more serious note, Daphne reflected later that it was a pity about the sexy bit though- so unnecessary and as Nina Auerbach points out, such changes to Du Mauriers works for film by directors such as Roeg and Hitchcock, can be seen to do her a disservice: Male directors may not deliberately falsify Daphne du Maurier but if we know her through their movies, we dont know her at all. a.) Changing meningitis to drowning enables Roeg to directly link her death to the waters of Venice, and water and reflections are one of the primary clusters of imagery in the film. It was first published in Britain by Gollancz (with a cover by Daphne du Maurier's daughter Flavia Tower), and in America by Doubleday under the title Don't Look Now. [35], While many of the changes were due to the logistics of filming in Venice, some were for creative reasons, the most prominent being the inclusion of the love scene.

'In Venice a shocking red December') is a 1973 English-language film in the thriller genre directed by Nicolas Roeg, adapted from the 1971 short story by Daphne du Maurier. [82], Its imagery has been directly referenced in several works. In this way, just as past, present, and future merge and exist simultaneously in du Mauriers story, both adaptations can be seen as creative versions of that initial idea inspired by the observation of a real couple. There is no comfort to be found in these images.

I believe film has a life of its own but releasing yourself to it is by no means easy (Sanderson, p.71). John and Laura have come to Venice to try and escape the pain of their young daughter's death.

In du Mauriers story the crowds of tourists and the busy restaurants and squares are both suffocating and reassuringly familiar, but when the sun goes down the darkness casts the city in a different role and Du Maurier foregrounds this disjunction: The soft humidity of the evening, so pleasant to walk about in earlier, had turned to rain. [11] John's premonitions merge with the present, such as at the start of the film where the mysterious red-coated figure is seemingly depicted in one of his photographic slides, and when he 'sees' Laura on the funeral barge with the sisters and mistakenly believes he is seeing the present, but in fact it is a vision of the future. Quotations from the Penguin edition, Dont Look Now and other stories (1973). [43] The film cost $1.3 million to produce,[50] and recouped most of its expenses before it was even released due to the sale of the US distribution rights to Paramount. Dont Look Now perfectly dramatizes this sense of a narrative having a life of its own, as the plot seems to spiral out of control and gather momentum as it races towards its tragic conclusion. Her novel Rebecca, her short stories 'The Birds,' 'Don't Look Now,' 'The Blue Lenses' and dozens more have an effectiveness that make them seem almost traditional, belonging not to any one author but to the imagination of the world. In Venice, John is similarly forewarned but this time he refuses to listen, instead convincing himself that the figure in red needs his help. [64][65], Don't Look Now is also very well regarded by other industry professionals. The explicit scene was cut for the US market and amusingly, Du Maurier was shown the sanitised version. In an addition to du Mauriers story, the film opens with Laura trying to answer a question that Christine has asked her, if the world is round, why is a frozen pond flat? Both facts appear to be true but contradictory at the same time, just as the tiny figure in red is at once threatened and threatening, in danger and a very real danger. (p.25). I just thought that it was a beautifully shot, really adult look at real-life horror stories, and there was a great degree of sexuality in it that, as a young kid, when I saw it, I remember I was very startled by. It was first published in Britain by Gollancz (with a cover by Daphne du Maurier's daughter Flavia Tower), and in America by Doubleday under the title Don't Look Now. [37], Don't Look Now's sex scene involving Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland caused considerable controversy before its release in 1973. Laura is taken to the hospital, where she later tells John what Heather told her. Roegs artistic decision to work in this way is reinforced in at the end of the film when John confronts the dwarf and is stabbed in the neck. The change in the manner of death required a rather different interpretation of the Baxters presence in Venice for Roegs film, however. Roeg served as the cinematographer on Petulia, which incidentally also starred Julie Christie, and Gibbs went on to edit Performance and Walkabout for Roeg.

[28][29] The script based on the short story by Daphne du Maurier was offered to Nicolas Roeg by scriptwriter Allan Scott, who had co-written the screenplay with Chris Bryant,[30] while Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland were cast in the principal roles. [99], Roeg frequently drew upon the world of pop music for his work, casting Mick Jagger in Performance, David Bowie in The Man Who Fell to Earth and Art Garfunkel in Bad Timing, and in turn his films have served as inspiration for musicians.

[16] This is best exemplified by the blind psychic woman, Heather, who communicates with the dead, but it is presented in other ways: the language barriers are purposefully enhanced by the decision to not include subtitles translating the Italian dialogue into English, so the viewer experiences the same confusion as John. Roegs opening has undeniable emotional impact but we are perhaps primed for tragedy more obviously than in du Mauriers playful caf scene. British tabloid newspaper, the Daily Mail, observed at the time that "one of the frankest love scenes ever to be filmed is likely to plunge lovely Julie Christie into the biggest censorship row since Last Tango in Paris". Afterwards, they go out to dinner, and en route get lost and briefly become separated. Given that their daughter drowned, the choice of Venice as a holiday destination (the motivation for their travel in du Mauriers story) would have seemed perverse and so Roeg turns John into a church restorer who is working on a particular project in Venice. [23] Roeg's use of colourespecially redcan be traced back to earlier work: both Performance and Walkabout feature scenes where the whole screen turns red, similar in nature to the scene during Christine's drowning when the spilt water on the church slide causes a reaction that makes italong with the whole screenturn completely red.
