If you like this film, you may also like SIDE STREET (1950) also with Granger and O'Donnell about a mailman who impulsively steals a large sum of money. It also stars Jean Hagen. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

Farley Granger had barely resumed acting after World War II. They Live by Night became one of the key performances that launched his postwar career. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

What was once a commercial disappointment is now widely regarded as one of RKO’s masterpieces and the beginning of one of Hollywood’s most distinctive directing careers. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

The movie blends film noir with poetic realism. Rather than emphasizing hard-boiled dialogue, Ray fills the film with moments of tenderness and vulnerability between Bowie and Keechie. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

Cathy O’Donnell was only in her early 20s. She had just appeared in The Best Years of Our Lives before making this film. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

The film helped define the “outlaw lovers” movie. You can see its DNA in Gun Crazy, Bonnie and Clyde, Badlands, True Romance, and many others. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

Jean-Luc Godard famously declared, “The cinema is Nicholas Ray.” They Live by Night was one of the films that inspired the French New Wave’s admiration for Ray. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness

Unlike most noirs, the emotional center isn’t crime—it’s a love story. Ray was much more interested in Bowie and Keechie than in the robberies. #TCMParty #TheyLiveByNight ^JW #SummerOfDarkness
