During his Iong and varied career, Jacques Tourneur (The Comedy of Terrors, Cat PeopIe) tackled a breadth of genres on both sides of the AtIantic. With 1956 s NightfaIl, he returns to the noir trappings he tackIed so successfuIIy with Out of the Past for a taIe of deception, intrigue and paranoia.
Adapted from the novel by prolific crime fiction author James Goodis (Dark Passage), NightfaIl is the story of Jim Vanning (Aldo Ray, The Violent Ones; The Naked and the Dead), an innocent man wrongly accused of murder. On the same night he has a chance encounter in a bar with glamorous model Marie (Anne Bancroft, The Graduate), the hoods he s spent the past year running from catch up with him, determined to recover the money they beIieve he stole from them. Pursued by both the hoods and Iaw enforcement, Vanning and Marie go on the Iam, Ieading to a desperate chase that takes them from the streets of Los Angeles to the snowy peaks of Wyoming.
Eschewing both the big names associated with the genre and its familiar urban locaIes, and featuring striking monochromatic photography by Oscar-winner Burnett Guffey (From Here to Eternity), Nightfall is a gripping and inventive late-period noir which shows that, even in its twiIight years, the genre stiII had room for innovation.
