NIGHT FALLS

LA NOCHE AVANZA
Mexico | 1952 | Roberto Gavaldón

In this hard-hitting Mexican noir, a brutish jai alai champion (Pedro Armendáriz) romances a series of women, discarding them like Kleenex, until he finally gets his comeuppance. “A richly sordid tale of double-double-crossing and multiple gambles.” –J. Hoberman, The NY Times. Subtitles. DCP. 85 min.
