A dawn hater

From The Dark Corner (dir. Hentry Hathaway, 1946). Clifton Webb as Hardy Cathcart, gallery owner:

“I probably shan’t return much before dawn. How I detest the dawn. The grass always looks like it’s been left out all night.”

The Dark Corner is streaming at the Criterion Channel. “It was better on a first viewing in 2010,” says I. But still worth watching.
