Francois has killed a man in a crime of passion, the slimy lothario Valentin (Jules Berry). As he listens in the darkness of his Normandy apartment to the police sirens closing in and getting louder, he recalls the two women that he loved - Francoise (Jacqueline Laurent) and Clara (Arletty) - and the evil Valentin, who stole both their hearts and forced Francois into this melancholy plight. The film was later re-made in Hollywood as The Long Night. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: Venice Film Festival, ...Daybreak (1939) ( Le Jour se lève ) ( Day break )
