4 out of 5 stars Don't Look Now - Daphne Du Maurier   February 21, 2006

I have read all the short stories as part of a project i'm doing on my media course at college, my favourite story has got to be don't look now. Don’t Look now is a really good read, you would not think that a short story could make you feel such emotions. I must admit I was scared for a few days. I think this would be an excellent book to make into a three part drama series. It has really got me thinking about what changes I would make to the story. Immediately I think of film noir when I think of the storylines simple plot, although in my adaptation of the novel the plot will be more convoluting. I have read the book and wouldn’t mind seeing the movie, I went to my local library but they do not have the film. I think I will order it off the internet. I have heard that the story is going to be made into a Hollywood film, can’t wait to see it.

The stories in the book are contrasting yet similar. They all end in an unfinished wondering way yet their content is extremely different. I particularly enjoyed the first story 'dont look now' even though it is somewhat fightening. THe story of the trip to Jerusalem was good and i particularly liked Robin as he reminded me of myself at that age though not quite as intelligent! Thois book made me think and another short story book by Du Maurier i can recommend is The rendevous and other stories.
