Nuns are sent to start a convent atop a mountain in India, but the wild and primitive atmosphere conjures ghosts and demons of repressed desire, leading one to abandon all resistance to her inner sluttishness, becoming obsessed with a bare-legged Englishman who is himself only interested in women who fight valiantly against their own impulses. The erotic melodrama tends to hysteria, but is no doubt ahead of its time. Looks very nice, but Renoir was surely right to insist on travelling to India.

While relying more on the visual experience compared to their other films, Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger does deliver a phenomenal treat. The drama is at times a bit too framed, preventing a deeper sense of their troubles, but at the same time there is so much going on with their expressions it gives it a different dimension. Deborah Kerr is established as a screen institution, and the transformation of Jenny Laird was simply haunting! The real winner was the cinematography.

Starts a little slow, but the atmosphere is powerful and the cinematography is absolutely splendid, particularly in the second half.

A mostly fine cast does its best to carry this beautifully filmed story of seething repression (Cardiff is an MVP) - Farrar is somewhat wooden, but Kerr’s strict Sister Superior manages to strike enough flinty sparks to compensate. A lack of development in character and plotting hurts the film - Byron’s portrait of madness steals scenes, but seems to bubble from nowhere; perhaps the ultimate artificiality of the setting makes it difficult to establish the required "hot-house" atmosphere.

A 'five man band' of nuns sets out to recruit some foreigners in the Himalayas. (The locals are like children, apparently.) Quite the multicultural spot from the looks of it! Despite introducing a collection of cartoon locals, the incongruously Hitchcock end has absolutely nothing to do with them - or if it does I'm not sure I'd care to know what.

A fabulous piece of work - although bordering on the daft at times its themes are way ahead of its time it’s gorgeous to look at and truly memorable.

Ahead of its time, technologically, narratively and thematically. Quite surprising that a film that is so firmly against dogmatic Christianity also had the budget to incorporate dazzling color back in the 40s. The film built up a tension that hinted at a kind of grotesque depravity that films decades later will win awards for (e.g. Fellini's Satyricon), still the climax ends up feeling a little muted--but that is a victim of its time.

A movie that could really only have been made during a very short time - if slightly earlier, it would have been unberably prim (and far more racist), if later, much more hard-edged realist. As it is, it almost stands as a sad dream of a rightfully dying empire, of things that never could, and probably never should, be.

Sometimes boarding on melodramatic, Black Narcissus is a film that was way ahead of its time. The photography is obviously stunning, but it is the subject matter that is impressively navigated in a film that is firm within the Hays Code era. There are some very arresting images of the consequences of jealousy, lust, and paranoia. A great film.

There's some great shots scattered throughout this but for the most part I don't think this aged as well as the rest of Jack Cardiff's work.

I'd write about this in a way similar to Lawrence of Arabia: It's really racist and colonial, but I'll be damned if it isn't one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. The visuals: the sets, costumes, make-up, camerawork, editing are absolutely outstanding and the film as a whole is a deeply gothic and atmospheric, with a bright yet expressionist and noiry aesthetic. If I ever become a filmmaker this is 100% what I'd want my films to look like. Shame it's so bloody racist though.

A spectacular visual achievement, not only for the obvious vivid color but for the way that story and subtext are explained wordlessly.

I didn't get into this "classic". The Himalayan setting was atmospheric and of course splendidly captured thanks to Jack Cardiff and Technicolor, and there are some great-looking shots in there. It was the many characters and competing subplots which didn't have much effect on me. The nuns, orphans, prince and macho man were too disparate. The way the melodramatic tension is built up towards the climax reminded me of The Red Shoes, and there's only so many times I can fall for the same formula.

Bristling with erotic friction between unstoppable forces and immovable objects, at turns pastoral and gothic and fantastic. It grabs you with these intense close-ups, reels you in with a no-fat story and invents the end of Vertigo as a finisher.
