This past weekend I rented Don’t Look Now, the 1973 mystery thriller starring Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland, and taking place in a marvelously eerie Venice full of shadows and far less tourists and pigeons than there were by the time I got there. Christie’s wardrobe in this film is immaculate—one of those instances where I’m taken with the clothing to the extent that it distracts from my appreciation of the rest of the film. My favorite is a black jacket with a huge, dramatic collar that she wears out on an evening—the perfect thing for seeing possible apparitions in the Venetian night. It’s worth renting (and not just for the clothes), and it’s also got me on a Julie Christie kick as my muse of the moment.

More of Christie’s great hair after the break.
