Nicholas Roeg's "Don't Look Now" creates unreliability somewhere. But the
question here is whether or not it is the narrator that is unreliable. In
fact the narrator is remarkably reliable, but it is the protagonists and
the viewer's misunderstanding of his visions that creates the
unreliability. Is this then an unreliable narrator? Or simply an
unreliable protagonist?
