NOIRVEMBER: "Le jour se lève/Daybreak" (1939, DIR: Jacques Prévert)

Noirvember goes to FRANCE, where Corbin and Matt talk about 'Le jour se lève,' known as Daybreak in America, a sorta-noir/sorta-crime movie/sort of allegory for the annhilation of Europe as Hitler prepared to invade everyone. Does it resonate in the present political climate? Unfortunately, yes!

Corbin reccomends Elliott Smith and Quasi on the Live Music Archive. Matt reccomends this song, I think? hard to say. 

Our next episode is about THIEF. Special guest! Rent it or watch it on MGM+, I guess.
