Presents
The Night of the Hunter
Plot:
It's the Great Depression. In the process of robbing a bank of $10,000, Ben
Harper kills two people. Before he is captured, he is able to convince his
adolescent son John and his daughter Pearl not to tell anyone, including their
mother Willa, where he hid the money, namely in Pearl's favorite toy, a doll
that she carries everywhere with her. Ben, who is captured, tried and convicted,
is sentenced to death. But before he is executed, Ben is in the state
penitentiary with a cell mate, a man by the name of Harry Powell, a
self-professed man of the cloth, who is really a con man and murderer, swindling
lonely women, primarily rich widows, of their money before he kills them. Harry
does whatever he can, unsuccessfully, to find out the location of the $10,000
from Ben. After Ben's execution, Harry decides that Willa will be his next mark,
figuring that someone in the family knows where the money is hidden. Despite
vowing not to remarry, Willa ends up being easy prey for Harry's outward
evangelicalism; she is a pious woman who feels she needs to atone for her sins
which led to Ben doing what he did, especially as Harry presents himself as the
preacher who worked at the prison and provided salvation to Ben before his
death. Harry quickly figures out that John and Pearl know where the money is.
Conversely, John doesn't trust Harry, John who first tries not to show to Harry
that he indeed does know where the money is, and then second constantly reminds
a more-trusting Pearl of their promise to their now-deceased father. With Willa
devoted to her new husband, John and Pearl need some other adult assistance in
evading Harry's veiled threats, an adult who not only can see the honesty and
goodness in children but who can also see a true wolf in sheep's clothing like
Harry.
