White Wall Cinema: DON’T LOOK NOW + Q&A
4K RESTORATION SCREENING
30th October 2025 @ 6:50 pm – 10:30 pm
Widely regarded as one of the greatest British films of all time—even among a remarkable run that includes Performance (1970), Walkabout (1971), and The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976)—Nicolas Roeg’s Don’t Look Now is often considered his crowning achievement.
Adapted from a short story by Daphne du Maurier, the film stars screen legends Julie Christie (Darling, Doctor Zhivago, McCabe & Mrs. Miller) and Donald Sutherland (M*A*S*H*, Klute, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Ordinary People) as John and Laura Baxter, a couple grieving the recent death of their young daughter following a tragic accident. While in Venice, where John has been commissioned to restore one of the city’s churches, Laura encounters a pair of sisters who claim to have made contact with the couple’s deceased child. But it’s only when John begins seeing strange and unsettling visions in the city’s labyrinthine streets that he starts to question the boundary between the living and the dead.
Considered by some a psychological horror and by others a supernatural thriller, Don’t Look Now is, at its heart, a profound meditation on grief—and one of the most exquisitely crafted, relentlessly unsettling films in all of cinema. Presented here in a stunning 4K restoration, experience Roeg’s haunting masterpiece on the big screen and then stay with us after the film for a special Q&A to gain deeper insight the film’s production and enduring power.
This screening will be followed by an in-depth discussion with special guest author Justin John Doherty, who—following appearances at venues such as Cult Plex Manchester and BFI Southbank—will join us to discuss the film and his stunning new coffee table book, DON’T LOOK NOW AND THEN. Featuring hundreds of previously unpublished photographs and documents, the book offers a fresh and intimate glimpse into the making of Nicolas Roeg’s masterpiece.
Following the film and Q&A, there will also be an opportunity to purchase a copy of Justin’s remarkable new book.
