Who can resist handsome Danny (Robert Montgomery)? Not the girls in an English village abuzz over the discovery of a headless corpse. Not the rich, disagreeable old woman (Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee Dame May Whitty) he works for. No one, except the old woman's niece (Rosalind Russell), who suspects that Danny's charming facade hides someone cold, calculating and possibly mad. Based on Emlyn Williams' London and Broadway stage hit, Night Must Fall is a chilling, perfectly calibrated thriller that will have you checking the locks on the door as you ponder the contents of that hatbox Danny carries around. Montgomery, long typecast as the suave star of romantic comedies, earned a 1937 Best Actor Oscar nomination for his harrowing, career-changing performance.
This movie gets off to a bit of a slow start but quickly makes up for it. Rosalind Russell, Robert Montgomery and Dame May Whitty are superb in this murder mystery. It takes place in a sleepy little rural English town. Without giving away the plot I can't say anymore about the film except that it takes some unusual twists over the course of the story. Each of the 3 main characters do splendid jobs of making this film seem so real. You'll feel as if you were there. You'll be on the edge of your seat toward the end - it's a classic film noire. Do yourself a favor and buy this film - I don't think you'll regret it.Linneaann
