The Moonlight Awards: 1943
from The Moonlight Awards · host Aaron Keck
Less to choose from this year as World War II ravages the globe, but 1943 did bring us another Hitchcock classic, the birth of Italian neo-realism, a new masterpiece from Carl Theodor Dreyer, a highly influential silent short from Maya Deren, and (some say) the most quintessentially British film ever made. But which one film has best stood the test of time? Join Rachel Schaevitz and Aaron Keck as they discuss the year in cinema, the merits of noir, the appeal of Joseph Cotten, gritty realism, witch hunts, bread knives, and why Winston Churchill banned the Archers - and then we'll look at the numbers (including the results of our expert panel vote) and crown the best picture of 1943. The nominees are Day of Wrath, The Life & Death of Col. Blimp, Meshes of the Afternoon, Ossessione, and Shadow of a Doubt. Who wins the Moonlight?
