I had so much fun watching, researching, and writing up these two (somewhat) little-known films, The Night Digger (1971), starring Patricia Neal (adaptation by her husband Roald Dahl: her second role post-stroke), and Alice, Sweet Alice, a bonkers religious-horror movie set in Paterson, New Jersey. Both gorgeous in their own ways.
I wrote up both The Night Digger and Alice Sweet Alice for Film Comment’s TCM Diary. (Showing times on TCM listed at the bottom of the piece.)
