Review of The Night of the Hunter (1955) by Adam G — 05 Aug 2008
Clearly some people dont get this film. Mitchum's performance is meant to be completely over the top as he is playing something of a grotesque, fairytale villain. And thats what this film is; part expressionist fairytale, part horror thriller.
It is pure concept cinema.
