January’s theme is “5 DIRECTORS” in which we analyze films by a different director each week and we end Nicholas Ray week with a technical marvel that deals with something that isn’t often focused upon during the Hayes code. Addiction. James Mason produced and starred in this story based off of a true to life article from the New York Times in which a man is diagnosed with a fatal condition. Fortunately there’s a new miracle drug called Cortisone that can keep him alive so long as he doesn’t abuse it. Spoiler: He abuses it. Hide the bibles when dad’s on the junk. You don’t want to go where the psychosis takes him. We end “Nicholas Ray 1952 to 1956” with the film “BIGGER THAN LIFE” starring James Mason, Barbara Rush and Walter Matthau. Don’t think addiction is just in the purview of the streets. It can affect school teachers with transatlantic accents as well. Such a unique film for its time and crafted in such a way that you can’t imagine it handled in anybody else’s hands. Of course we found a link.
