Is it right to let someone feel valued? Black Narcissus comes from Micheal Powell and Emeric Pressburger, who both wrote the screenplay based on Rumer Godden’s novel of the same name. The film features Deborah Kerr, Sabu, Jean Simmons, David Farrar, Flora Robson and Kathleen Byron. Brian Easdale composed the music and Jack Cardiff was in charge of cinematography. A group of nuns journey to the Himalayas with the goal of establishing a school and hospital at the abandoned Palace of Mopu. Once they're situated high up in the mountains, some of them discover themselves drawn to the area’s alluring atmosphere. This creates problems as their internal struggles begin to surface. I don't really have much to say about this film, because it would be unnecessary given all the detailed analyses that already exist. I mostly just concur with what others have said about it. Is there anything fresh to contribute? Probably not, honestly. Black Narcissus is an experience—a tribute to spiritual cinema and a display of stunning visuals. Some consider it a masterpiece, while others feel it falls slightly short, but most film enthusiasts recognize it as a work of considerable artistry. On the downside, though it’s minor in comparison to everything else, the plot feels somewhat underdeveloped, and a couple of the main nuns are excessively attractive; I'm not trying to disrespect actual nuns, but they aren't likely as striking as Kerr and Byron portray them! You can sense the interaction between someone focused on visuals and someone concerned with narrative attempting to find some common ground, but in this case, the visualist (Powell) takes precedence, and film lovers everywhere benefit from it. Featuring a terrific cast, painted backdrops, and Technicolor so gorgeous that you'll practically have a sensory overload, along with an undercurrent of sensual suspense, Black Narcissus represents significant British filmmaking. It’s brought to us by two directors who absolutely deserve all the praise they receive. 9/10
