Review of Daybreak

Daybreak (1948)
7/10
Stuck in my mind a long time
25 January 2021
I happened across this film on TV years ago (when they used to show decent, obscure old movies) and I remember while I was watching, I spent most of my time wondering if it was brilliant or if it was terrible - or what was it really all about. There seemed to be a lot unsaid (possibly/ likely due to censorship, as others here have said), but this added to its appeal too, maybe - it left much to the viewer's imagination and this only improved the movie. I will have to see it again. I'd LIKE to see it again. But where? There should be an option on imdb that shows if a movie is available on streaming/ cinema/ tv - and if not, to notify someone when it comes up. I'd add this one. My rating (7/10) is possibly unfair in either direction and likely to change after I see it again, but the fact that it stayed in my mind for over 20 years alone deserves a number of stars.
