Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

RanchoTuVu A young British heiress (Patricia Franklin) is kidnapped at an airport in Paris in this rather tough existentialist crime drama featuring Marlon Brando as the nominal leader of the gang of morally flexible criminals that include his drug addicted girlfriend played by Rita Moreno, her pickpocket brother (Jess Hahn) and Richard Boone at his most menacing as a pimp named Leer. They hold her in an isolated house on a desolate looking beach but discover a French police officer who likes to fish coincidentally happens to live nearby. The entire affair is heavy going with a group who thinks they can pull off this caper and avoid the underlying violence. Interesting tension develops between bad Boone and not-so-bad Brando, with Jess Hahn sort of stealing the show as a kind of non- violent pickpocket desperate just to get the money. In addition it's a pretty far way from where Rita Moreno was in West Side Story.

Wuchak Released in 1968, "The Night of the Following Day" is a realistic crime drama featuring Brando as one of four professional criminals who kidnap a girl (a teenage Pamela Franklin) and hold up at a beach house in France. Richard Boone stars as the fiendish member, while Jess Hahn plays a likable loser, the brother of the pathetically drug addicted Rita Moreno.At the time of this picture Brando was 44 years old and never looked better physically -- very trim and blond. Brando didn't start getting fat until the later-70's when he was well into his 50's. In other words, people need to quit envisioning Brando as some fat dude; most of his life he wasn't. Most men in their mid-40's would kill to look as good as Brando did at the this age.BOTTOM LINE: Coming from the mid-60s when realism was fashionable this crime thriller is more of a crime drama, but suspense slowly builds to a compelling final act, which shows that crime doesn't pay, but people are redeemable if they qualify. There's also an unexpected twist that was fresh at the time, but is now eye-rolling.The film was shot during generally cloudy conditions in France and runs a short but sweet 93 minutes.GRADE: B-

steleru Between his glory days of the early-to-mid-1950s and his reemergence as a major Hollywood player in "The Godfather", Marlon Brando seemingly dropped out of sight in the last half of the 1960s, appearing in a variety of unsuccessful and mainly forgotten films that are seldom discussed or seen today. This movie happens to be one of those films. While it will never achieve the status of a lost classic, I found it to be an interesting effort in spite of its inherent flaws. Contrary to what one might expect from a movie with such a stellar cast, each character is left undeveloped to a large extent, making it difficult to emotionally identify with either victim or villain. The film's storyline and atmosphere are rather spare and understated, leaving long moments of silent inactivity that seem to be self-consciously artsy at times, yet do not truly diminish the gradually building suspense of the plot's resolution. A misguided attempt at a twist ending serves more to confuse things than provide a satisfying conclusion, but this does not ruin what was overall an enjoyable film, if one is able to get past its sometimes methodical and uneventful pace and instead allow the story to unwind in its own sweet time.

kbrai another brando film from the 60s which got a lot of negative reviews when it came out. its not that bad at all in fact pretty interesting. brando has moments here which just underline the fact that he is the greatest ever.the movie could have been better, but the performances are very good. boone, moreno and of course brando. Brando is looking good with blonde hair and is fit and fine in all black...and his greeting to richard boone in the last half hour of the film is to die for...when he says clark gable..hilarious.the movie captures the deceit and confusion of its main players and the geography of the entire movie adds to the drama. There is an underlying feeling of violence about to be unleashed at any time in the movie.A movie which again says to all the critics of that time, that they did not have the knack of appreciating something which made them think and see the dark nature of man.
