Review of They Live by Night (1949) by Mathieu C — 02 Aug 2007
Great film by a great director. Nicholas Ray specified in films that dealt with characters that were in love but who they were made it impossible to be together. This film has us witnessing a love affair between an escaped convict and the daughter of a roadside merchant.
We know the film can only end badly, even when things are looking up.
