Long Day's Journey Into Night
“PRIDE... POWER... PASSION... PAIN!”
Drama
Over the course of one day in August 1912, the family of retired actor James Tyrone grapples with the morphine addiction of his wife Mary, the illness of their youngest son Edmund and the alcoholism and debauchery of their older son Jamie. As day turns into night, guilt, anger, despair, and regret threaten to destroy the family.
VIBE
A suffocating, soul-baring descent into family ruin. This film feels like a long, agonizing confession, heavy with unspoken resentments and the crushing weight of addiction. It's a raw, unflinching look at the darkest corners of the human heart.
