Review of The Long Night (1947) by Adam S — 25 Aug 2012
To think that the producers wanted to eradicate all prints of "Le Jour se Leve" from the world to help preserve this remake as the sole bearer of it's flashback heavy, brooding love triangle (quadrangle?).
Thankfully that didn't happen, and we have both films to compare, and they're both excellent, the former in a poetic mood, the latter with melodramatic noirish overtones, and great cinematography.
Fonda, Bel Geddes, Price (doing his own magic), and Dvorak are all exceptional.
