    All Night Long (1961)

    Facebook Twitter Pinterest WhatsApp Reddit Email

    Set in the London jazz world of the 1960’s, a jealous drummer seeks to destroy his bandleader’s marriage so that he can assume his jazz group’s leadership in this re-telling of Othello.

    At the centre of it all is jazz singer Delia Lane (Marti Stevens), married to Aurelius Rex (Paul Harris) and desired by Johnny Cousin (Patrick McGoohan), jazzmen both.

    It’s shot like a moody film noir and its main appeal is the chance to spot hot jazzmen like Dave Brubeck, Charles Mingus, Tubby Hayes and Britain’s own Johnny Dankworth in the frequent musical interludes.

    The main incongruity is Richard Attenborough as a man about town.
