    The second disc with the Criterion's "Night of the Hunter" is "Charles Laughton Directs Night of the Hunter", which is every bit as good as the movie itself. When Laughton directed he didn't cut between takes, but kept the camera rolling, told the actors what he wanted them to do differently and had them return to their marks, then repeat the scene, sometimes numerous times until he was satisfied. When the movie was edited the best take was used and the other takes were cut up but miraculously saved. Years later the 100s of pieces of film without any scene or take identification were painstakingly pieced back together to show how Laughton directed his only film. Fascinating and highly recommended.

      YES I totally second this. If you didn't mention it, I would have. It's the best teaching thing ever, you actually hear how an experienced actor talks to other actors, sometimes with a loving push that directors who haven't been actors would not dare - or would not have earned the relationship for. I don't know if she knows about the second disk yet, but of course she'll love it too. It's also beautiful and sad that his wife preciously kept the rushes - which no studios ever do. This is a unique and incredible set.

      @@harvey1954 Charles Laughton's method of directing the cast was not the problem. It was economical in terms of time and and Laughton created a great film. The problem was on the studio's end. They didn't know how to categorize or market the film, and they let it die. Laughton was discouraged and he never got a second chance. It wasn't until decades later that Night Of The Hunter was recognized as a great film. It's hard to calculate what Laughton might have created had the studios had as much imagination as Laughton and given him additional opportunities.

    @1:44: I love the film but showing it to a ten year old seems like a bad idea. It's the type of "adult" film that gains from points of reference and having gone through life at least a bit for it to properly resonate. Plus, if i remember correctly, there are some rather adult situations, including many of a sexual nature that would add nothing to a child's life but are interesting as an adult to pontificate. I couldn't see anything of substance sticking in a childs mind from this type of not just deep but dark content, except some creativity in the presentation. Might as well make it a double feature with Synecdoche New York, lol! (P.S., i also love this film, but there is a time and a place for everything).

    They often make a point of implying that their picks are not pretentious, but that's exactly how I perceive it. Most of them focus on films that have some kind of academic status, typically some stylistic watershed moment, named perceived brilliance and so on. The older the better. They're not really picks made by people who's "expertise" lies in watching films without the added layers between them and the viewing experience, especially not if entertainment is part of the agenda.
