"A Scream in the Night” from 1935 is a Lon Chaney, Jr vehicle that is deeply problematic when viewed today. On the face of it, it’s a crime drama set somewhere in the Middle East. However, as typical for the time, it manages to include a whole lot of things that aren’t necessary to tell the story of a jewel thief and the detectives looking to stop him. Mike and Amber dig into the highly questionable parts of this film while putting it into historical context and looking for something good in the narrative.
