Review of The Night of the Following Day (1969) by Betty N — 08 Mar 2010
I hated the very end of this, but everything leading up to it was excellent. Richard Boone pours on the sleaze as a methodical and dangerous manipulator, while Brando seems refreshingly improvisatory and back in form.
I could have used more Lettieri, and Rita Moreno isn't given enough to do either. Stanley Myers jazz score is fantastic, especially building up to the ending. The night for night shooting is not a problem as much as the dismissive structure, which I found disappointing.
