A tension-riddled night of Jazz, love… and hate!
All Night Long (1962) follows a resentful drummer who uses a riverside anniversary party to engineer the downfall of a successful jazz bandleader and his wife. As insinuations, forged evidence, and calculated misunderstandings unfold over the course of the evening, professional rivalry and romantic jealousy escalate toward confrontation. This British jazz drama blends modernized Shakespearean adaptation and psychological intrigue in a nocturnal study of envy and betrayal.
