Obscure YT of the day: FERRY TO HONG KONG (1959), directed by Lewis Gilbert (ALFIE, SPY WHO LOVED ME)! Edited by Peter Hunt! This is the famous film where everyone was making a drama, but Orson Welles decided it was a comedy and wouldn't listen to anyone.

Another take of Miriam with Regis Toomey for 24 Hours (1931). Trivia: The film was director Marion Gering’s follow up to his Paramount debut I Take This Woman (1931) starring Carole Lombard and Gary Cooper.

This publicity still for Red Desert hints at an alternate ending, in which Giuliana vandalises the walls of her shop and faces Ugo and Corrado with a mixture of shame and defiance. In black-and-white, the dark paint-streaks look like blood, as though Giuliana has committed an act of violence.
