Centennial Film Screening: Each Dawn I Die

until 8:35 PM @ Capitol Centre, 150 Main Street East, North Bay ON

Each Dawn I Die was released in 1939 and screened at the Capitol Centre in its early years (Capitol Centre opened in 1929). This was at the start of World War II so patrons contributed scraps of metal, etc, for the war effort in lieu of money for admission to the film screening.

Synopsis: Frank Ross (James Cagney) is an intrepid reporter hot on the trail of a corrupt politician when he is framed for vehicular manslaughter and sent to prison. There he meets the infamous gangster "Hood" Stacey (George Raft), and the two become fast friends when Stacey saves Ross from a deadly knife attack. When Stacey escapes from a courthouse, he promises that he will help clear Ross' name by finding the man who framed him. But can Ross really trust the word of a gangster?

Run Time: 1h 32m

With the support of the Centennial Event Hosting Fund, this event is free to attend!
