"Nightfall:" from the trove of American film noir comes this long

forgotten gem. Perhaps because it stars Aldo Ray, usually known for his war films, this one almost disappeared. It deserves more: Ray portrays a vet on the run--- we don't find out why for quite some time--- from two different pursuers. Into this violent chase sashays the very sexy, young Anne Bancroft whose mouth already could be twisted into a sexy snarl. Brian Keith, with a vicious sidekick who should be a noir legend, wants $300,000 from Ray--- and isn't hesitant to kill and torture to get it.
Ray, Bancroft, the actor who portrays the sadistic thug, and Keith aren't the only reasons to see this: the story is well told in flashbacks and the on-location wilderness scenes are spectacular.
Noir fans: don't wait on this one!
