Night People (1954)
A Cold War Propaganda Film
30 March 2019
The subject would sound attractive to aficionados of Cold War spy stories (a-la John Le Carre or Len Deighton). Unfortunately, it's a huge disappointment: The story has incredible plot twists; everybody talks fast and furious like James Cagney in a 30s talkie; the are no subtleties whatsoever: it's us (the West) who are right, and it's them (the Russians) who are the new Nazis. Pure Cold War propaganda film that didn't survive the future.
