5 They Live by Night
1949 – США (95 мин)Произв. RKO (Джон Хаусмен)Реж. НИКОЛАС РЕЙСцен. Чарлз Шнее, Николас Рей по роману Эдварда Эндерсона «Воры как мы» (Thieves Like Us)Опер. Джордж Э. ДискантМуз. Ли ХарлайнВ ролях Кэти О'Доннелл (Кичи), Фарли Грейнджер (Буи), Хауард Да Силва (Чикамо), Джей К. Флиппен (Т. Даб), Хелен Крэйг (Мэтти), Уилл Райт (Мобли), Иэн Вулф (Хокинз).Трое заключенных, осужденных пожизненно – Т. Даб, Чикамо и Буи, – сбегают из тюрьмы. Буи, самый молодой (23 года, 7 из которых проведены за решеткой), влюбляется в Кичи, племянницу Чикамо. Буи раньше работал машинистом на ярмарочной карусели, а в тюрьму попал только за то, что присутствовал при убийстве, хоть и не участвовал в нем. Трое беглецов грабят банк. Чуть позже Буи получает травмы в ДТП, а Чикамо убивает полицейского, который хотел их допросить. Кичи ухаживает за раненым Буи. Молодые люди уезжают из этих мест на автобусе и поспешно женятся в пути. Они снимают отдельный домик в мотеле. Чикамо выходит на их след и заставляет Буи пойти на новое ограбление. Операция заканчивается провалом, и Т. Даб погибает. Чуть позже Буи и Кичи узнают, что Чикамо убили в баре. Они сбегают из мотеля и приезжают в штат Миссисипи. Кичи беременна и чувствует себя плохо. Буи вынуждает Мэтти, чей муж сидел в одной камере с ним, Дабом и Чикамо, но не сумел бежать вместе с ними, приютить их в своем мотеле. Та выдает их властям, чтобы добиться для мужа досрочного освобождения. Буи убивают полицейские рядом с домиком Кичи, когда он идет навестить ее в последний раз. Перед этим он решил расстаться с Кичи навсегда, чтобы ей не пришлось вести вместе с ним жизнь загнанного зверя.► Первый фильм Николаса Рея, вписанный в строгие, но допускающие отклонения рамки нуара. Уже в первой своей картине почти стихийно Рей показывает себя мастером нарушения жанровых границ. Он даже больше Хьюстона в Асфальтовых джунглях, The Asphalt Jungle пренебрегает собственно действием, скрывает от наших глаз многие зрелищные сцены и решительно опускает потасовку, в которой погибает Чикамо. Его интересует погружение двух невинных молодых людей, Буи и Кичи, в сумрачный и жестокий мир, состоящий почти исключительно из мест, через которые персонажи проносятся мимолетно (мотель, зал ожидания, шоссе и т. д.), насыщая их своей грустью и страхом. Грубость и выразительность второстепенных персонажей – одноглазого Чикамо, предательницы Мэтти, которые сами по себе мало интересуют Николаса Рея, – служит для того, чтобы подчеркнуть молодость и уязвимость главных героев, показанных с той нежной и пронзительной интонацией, которой режиссер владел в совершенстве. Как и в большинстве его картин, эта в первую очередь – поэтическое произведение, где метафора заправляет всем сюжетом: как основными линиями, так и побочными. Отрыв от реальности, неприспособленность к миру (преступному), характеризующие двух главных героев, – лучший образ, найденный Реем для выражения внутреннего одиночества человека и оторванности от всего, в первую очередь – от самого себя, которую ощущают некоторые люди с рождения и до самой смерти.N.В. Джон Хаусмен, один из самых плодовитых продюсеров Голливуда, давший шанс Николасу Рею в RKO, вспоминает (в журнале «Cahiers du cinéma», № 143), что фильм пролежал на полке 3 года вместе с Подставой, The Set-Up Роберта Уайза. «Наконец, когда Хьюз решился продать компанию, эти фильмы были сняты с полки и выброшены на рынок. Они живут ночами не привлек к себе никакого внимания при первом прокате в Америке как фильм категории „Б“. Он начал пользоваться известностью лишь гораздо позже, благодаря телепоказам». Но между этими событиями фильм и сам Николас Рей были открыты в Европе. Следует добавить, что, несмотря на некоторое поверхностное сходство сценариев, фильм не имеет ничего общего ни с Живёшь только раз, You Only Live Once, которого Рей в то время не видел, ни с Без ума от оружия, Gun Crazy. Ремейк Воры как мы, Thieves Like Us снят Робертом Олтменом в 1974 г.Авторская энциклопедия фильмов Жака Лурселля > They Live by Night
