The Night of the Hunter - (Laughton;1955;USA) - ****
A false preacher tries to convince two children to tell him where hidden money is from a robbery.
One of the greatest film-noirs. Several scenes are beautifully dream-like and eerie. A classic performance from Robert Mitchum as the devilish preacher helps it along with Laughton's direction. A shame he only directed this one film. Powell is one of America's most memorable villains ever. A must-see.

Would you like me to tell you the little story of right-hand/left-hand? The story of good and evil?
