Episode 97: REMEMBER THE NIGHT (1940)

Not quite a feel-good Christmas film nor an acerbic character piece, REMEMBER THE NIGHT seems to forget what it wants to be after the first act. Mired in early WWII sentiments (and prejudice) about traditional values and self-sacrifice, it risks being scuttled by its uneven parts – but it’s spared the worst thanks to some dynamite performances from Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray.
