SYNOPSIS
All Night Long redresses William Shakespeare’s Othello for pulp audiences. Patrick McGoohan is an ambitious drummer who tries to coax a famous singer out of retirement to front his band. The singer declines and the drummer becomes so obsessed with destroying her marriage that he risks his own relationship and career in the process. There’s a perverse delight in watching party gossip spread like wildfire, especially when you know the source will get burned, but All Night Long isn’t just a slick meditation on celebrity. The film captures musical icons Dave Brubeck, John Scott, and Charles Mingus in their prime, making it an invaluable time capsule of the London jazz scene in the early 1960s. Featuring a heartbreaking turn by Betsy Blair.
