PUNQ

Rated 02 Oct 2015

Daybreak (1931) is definitely inspired by what Ernst Lubitsch was doing at the time. Uniformed hunt for love with charm and a little naughtiness. Ramon Novarro could certainly pull it off, Helen Chandler a little less so. There is also a resemblance to Novarro's own silent classic The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg (1927) and he is reunited with Jean Hersholt, but this time not in a good way as Hersholt becomes his rival. Sadly Daybreak misses most of it's mark for the lack of purpose.
