“Filhos da Noite”

“They live by night” (1949), Real. Nicholas Ray

This boy… and this girl… were never properly introduced to the world we live in… To tell their story… They Live by Night.

“Son, I’d sure like that money. I’m old, and money’s a real comfort to an old man. I believe in helping people get what they want as long as they pay for it. I marry people ‘cos there’s a little hope they’ll be happy. But I can’t take this money of yours. No sir. In a way I’m a thief just the same as you are, but I won’t sell you hope when there ain’t any.”
