Customer Reviews of Remember the Night
HEART-WARMING COMEDY-DRAMA WITH FRED AND BARBARA Stanwyck is very appealing here as Lee Leander, the shoplifting gal who goes to stay with DA MacMurray and his family during the Christmas holidays. You'd have to be a grump not to like this sentimental blend of pathos, drama and zaniness which borders on Capra-corn yet never goes over the edge. Realistic are the scenes where Stanwyck experiences a warm, close-knit family (something she had never known) and the scene where she confronts her cold mother (Georgia Caine) is truly moving. Both Elizabeth Patterson and Beulah Bondi give superb performances which are honest and not heavy-laden. This "holiday-type" is great viewing for any time of the year! A superior Leisen directorial effort coupled with a terrific Sturges script make this nifty little 1940 flick a keeper!
Remember The Night
Well, what can I say?? It's an old movie and not
very interesting. I watched it once and probably
won't watch it again. This movie cannot compare
to some of the classics.
How about Winona Ryder doing a remake of this one?
Seriously, she would be excellent in the Stanwyck role in a modern redo of this script. It could even be part of her community service sentence! And she might learn a valuable life lesson, while she's still young, that is, if the Hollywood of today doesn't change the ending and still makes the lady shoplifter accountable. Really appreciated Fred MacMurray looking so tall, dark and handsome in this one--even more so than in Double Indemnity. I could see George Clooney playing this Asst. D.A. part, if he darkens his hair like Fred to appear a bit younger, and possibly taking the defendant to his old-fashioned home down South (George really does hail from Kentucky) to his farm to meet his family, instead of to Indiana. Or, maybe Matthew McConnaghey could take lady crook home to his family's cabin in the mountains. The other actress I could see in this part is Sandra Bullock, possibly paired with Tom Hanks, a modern-day, all around good guy. What a great comedy team they would make, who also can turn dramatic.
Please, Hollywood, just don't pair Jennifer Lopez with Antonio Banderas, or Madonna with Richard Gere. And not Julia Roberts, with Hugh Grant, oh, no -- she's too over the top for this part, and Hugh would have to take lady crook home to Blimey, and that's not allowed when trial is pending!
