Don't Look Now

We close out our “Criterion” theme with 1973’s Don’t Look Now, spine number 745 in the Criterion Collection. This Nicholas Roeg adaptation of a Daphne du Maurier short story stars Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie as grieving parents who are mourning the accidental drowning of their daughter. While working on restoring a historic church in Venice, they are approached by a pair of sisters, one of whom claims she is a psychic, and she has a warning from the spirit of the deceased daughter. 

We also discuss whether we believe in psychics, and Karl tells a story of a visit his mom made to a psychic that made an impression. I’m getting a message from beyond…that you will give this episode a listen!
