[QUOTE="Sea - Boo! - Er, post: 397522, member: 57"] This Is the Night (1932) Continuing my Thelma Todd festival. This one is quite hard to describe. Plotwise, it's nothing special. A man (Roland Young) having a an affair with a married woman (Todd) hire an actress to pose as his wife to throw his paramour's husband off the scent. (The husband, by the way, is Cary Grant in his first film. He and Young would later appear together in [I]Topper[/I]* (1937). By then, Cary Grant is billed before Young; here he is after Todd.) Stylistically, the film is quite unusual. If I call it a musical, you would get the wrong impression. There are sequences in which the action is set to a musical rhythm, is the best way I can put it. Not quite like anything else I've seen. [/QUOTE]
