Went the Day Well? 1942. 92 minutes. United Kingdom. Directed by Alberto Cavalcanti. Watchdate: 10/06/2011. A surreal Graham Greene scripted propaganda about Nazi paratroopers impersonating English soldiers in a small town. It's Red Dawn 1942 : Buñuel meets Hitchcock. And so we get a matron diving on grenade. We get a woman gracefully walking downstairs wielding a giant revolver. We get the best murder scene outside of Torn Curtain . In fact, perhaps it inspired Torn Curtain ? This movie may have inspired every dream that we call a movie.
