Интересные факты

Night After Night is a 1932 American pre-Code drama film starring George Raft, Constance Cummings, and Mae West in her first movie role. Others in the cast include Wynne Gibson, Alison Skipworth, Roscoe Karns, Louis Calhern, and Bradley Page. Directed by Archie Mayo, it was adapted for the screen by Vincent Lawrence and Kathryn Scola, based on the Cosmopolitan story "Single Night" by Louis Bromfield, with West allowed to contribute to her lines of dialogue, for which she was uncredited.

Production

West portrays a fictionalized version of Texas Guinan. The film is primarily remembered as the launching pad for her career. Raft campaigned to cast his friend and former employer Guinan herself, but the studio opted for West, since she was nine years younger. Raft believed that the part would have launched a major film career for Guinan (then aged 48), which proved to be the case for West, instead.

The film was Raft's first leading role and came about due to response to his work in Scarface. According to Filmink, "this picture is best remembered today for introducing Mae West to cinema audiences – and she's brilliant – but Raft was excellent too as a former gangster turned nightclub manager who is having a midlife crisis."
