NIGHT WORLD Boris Karloff 1932
For years believed to be a lost film, "Night World" suddenly resurfaced
in the early 1980s, revealing itself to be an undiscovered gem, as well
as a garden of delights for movie buffs. Clearly inspired by "Grand
Hotel", this 57-minute extravaganza takes place within the walls of the
swank nightclub owned by affable racketeer Happy MacDonald (Boris
Karloff). In the course of a single evening, MacDonald is set up for
murder by his faithless wife (Doris Revier); the philosophical black
doorman (Clarence Muse) learns that his beloved wife has died;
alcoholic socialite Michael Rand (Lew Ayres), the son of an acquitted
murderess (Hedda Hopper, playing one of the nastiest mothers in screen
history), finds true love in the arms of hard-boiled chorus girl Ruth
Taylor (Mae Clarke); and Michael and Ruth are saved from a pair of
psychotic mob torpedoes by the timely arrival of beat cop Robert Emmet
O'Connor. There are also a few marvelous pre-Code jibes at
homosexuality and drug use, not to mention a full-blown musical number
by Busby Berkeley (overhead camera angles and all). Original Music by
Alfred Newman.
