The Night of the Hunter tient une place inhabituelle dans la légende du cinéma, celle du plus grand film orphelin de l’histoire. Sous son apparente féerie, ce conte adapté du roman de Davis Grubb est d’une noirceur rarement égalée. Ce premier film fit peu à peu parler de lui au fil des années pour finalement devenir ce qu’il est aujourd’hui : un chef d’œuvre incontournable et bien plus complexe qu’il n’y paraît.

THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER—incredibly, the only film the great actor Charles Laughton ever directed—is truly a stand-alone masterwork. A horror movie with qualities of a Grimm fairy tale, it stars a sublimely sinister Robert Mitchum as a traveling preacher named Harry Powell (he of the tattooed knuckles), whose nefarious motives for marrying a fragile widow, played by Shelley Winters, are uncovered by her terrified young children. Graced by images of eerie beauty and a sneaky sense of humor, this ethereal, expressionistic American classic—also featuring the contributions of actress Lillian Gish and writer James Agee—is cinema’s most eccentric rendering of the battle between good and evil.
