Yeah, shame Laughton didn't direct again. He showed visionary talent in this film. Then again I read in a film book once that Laughton stands alone as a film director, because for masterpieces he's batting 1.000.
Perhaps there was consolation in knowing he was, and for me still is, regarded as one of the half-dozen or so greatest actors in screen history.

Strange and beautiful.

Filming ground to a halt one day because Mitchum had gotten so high on marijuana that he could barely see straight. Laughton gave him and earful,and Mitchum proceeded to walk right over to Laughton's care and pee on the front seat. According to Laughton himself "he zipped up and gave me a look like it was just the dearest thing he'd ever done."

The most hauntingly poignant few minutes in all cinema. Such a tragedy that it was not recognized as such until so much later!

saw this in school for visual media class, so im writing an essay. Wish me luck!
Sad that Charles Laughton never directed another film because it got slated when it first came out. The imagery in this film is genius, wish he could have lived to receive the praise this is worth! One of the greatest films. Beautiful.
