| Video Discription | 1945's "Hangover Square" starring Laird Cregar, Linda Darnell and George Sanders is a gripping film noir that immerses viewers in the shadowy and atmospheric world of Edwardian London. From its captivating plot, based on a novel by Patrick Hamilton, to its atmospheric direction and cinematography, and the phenomenal and evocative score by Bernard Hermann, "Hangover Square" stands as a true period noir film. However, no discussion of "Hangover Square" would be complete without a closer look at the life and career of its young star, Laird Cregar. An immensely talented actor, tragically cut short, Cregar brought the main character, George Harvey Bone, to life on the screen. Laird Cregar, recognized as much for his imposing physical presence as for his acting prowess, only appeared in a handful of films before his untimely death in 1944. Yet, he managed to leave a lasting impression. If you've ever witnessed Cregar's on-screen performances, you would know how he effortlessly stole the show. Sadly, due to his brief Hollywood career, Cregar has largely fallen into obscurity among the public. This is a great loss, as he brought a newfound intensity to the silver screen not to be forgotten.
