With its sparkling screenplay by Preston Sturges (The Great McGinty, The Palm Beach Story), this much-loved romantic comedy paired screen legends Barbara Stanwyck (The Lady Eve, Forty Guns) and Fred McMurray (Double Indemnity, The Absent-Minded Professor) for the very first time. Stanwyck plays Lee Leander, a shoplifter who faces a lonely Christmas in prison, while McMurray is the strait-laced New York District Attorney who takes pity on her and organises her release on bail. After he offers to drive her to visit her family, a trouble-filled road-trip ensues and an unlikely romance blossoms. Directed by Mitchell Liesen (Easy Living, Hold Back the Dawn), and featuring acting support from Beulah Bondi (It's a Wonderful Life) and Elizabeth Patterson (The Cat and the Canary), Remember the Night is an all-time classic comedy from Hollywood's golden age.
