That latter half is important because Crawford is running for governor, and must keep their affair a secret. When the past comes back in full force, Nora must go to the electric chair to save everything she knows and loves.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a pretty common melodramatic storyline (in fact, I spent much of the movie being reminded of the star-studded and more straightforward <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/myrna-loy-and-williams-powell-collection\/883929280827\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Manhattan Melodrama<\/a>), but the way that\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/sin-of-nora-moran\/089218692993\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Sin of Nora Moran<\/a> is told is remarkably unconventional. Three narrative strands that all propel things forward, obfuscating as well as illuminating, each layer allowing us to see different sides of Nora and the mystery that surrounds her. The first is the framing narrative, with district attorney John Grant (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?ac=Alan%20Dinehart%7C106383&amp;mod=AP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Alan Dinehart<\/a>) explaining to his sister and the governor\u2019s wife Edith (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?ac=Claire%20DuBrey%7C1408858&amp;mod=AP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Claire DuBrey<\/a>) why she shouldn\u2019t rush to confront him about some unsigned love letters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/the-sin-of-nora-moran-1933-of-shattered-souls\/sin-of-nora-moran-2\/#main\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-47680\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47680\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-2.png\" alt=\"SIN OF NORA MORAN 2\" width=\"535\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-2.png 535w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-2-300x206.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><\/a>The story begins with Grant challenging Edith to listen to his story. In one of the signs that we\u2019re in for a treat, Edith is given a few seconds to consider this, and reluctantly takes a seat. Grant immediately sets a challenge upon her, his urge to overwhelm her with empathy beginning straight from the start:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou said you wanted her to suffer. Did you ever witness an execution?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy, of course not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid you ever see the preparation for one? The cold-blooded preparation for the disposable, burned out, lifeless thing that a few moments before the execution was a human being\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He tells the story of the time Nora Moran spent in prison, and through her perspective we\u2019re treated to her life story, told out of order and sometimes even breaking as she violently tries to resist the fate that\u2019s coming at the end of her story. These layers add complications to the story, as we\u2019re getting Nora\u2019s story from Grant\u2019s perspective, a man who eventually has no choice but to send her to the electric chair to protect his own greed and propriety. It turns Nora Moran from conventionality, making it the story of one man coming to terms with his guilt as well as one poor woman whose entire life of misery seems to have been wasted by cruel, masculine forces beyond her control.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/the-sin-of-nora-moran-1933-of-shattered-souls\/sin-of-nora-moran-4\/#main\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-47682\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47682\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-4.png\" alt=\"SIN OF NORA MORAN 4\" width=\"535\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-4.png 535w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-4-300x205.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><\/a>The movie itself is edited like jazz, with refinements reconfiguring themselves in loops. Besides a remarkably fluid camera, the film is absolutely kaleidoscopic. Goldstone exploits stock footage to create dizzying montages that take us through years, both forwards and backwards. There\u2019s also constant cutting to the image of a fireplace, used to represent life itself in many ways as it both plagues Nora and consumes her for her titular sin whole.<\/p>\n<p>Rare for 1933, the film is backed by a constant music score. Admittedly, it can sound pretty forced, especially early on. Filmmakers were still figuring how background music worked at this point, and even if it feels canned or even soap-opera-y at several points, but it never, ever lets up. As much as the editing, it\u2019s the drumbeat of doom towards a dizzying and inevitable fate.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite moments figures directly into this momentum, as Nora is caught up in her whirlwind romance with Crawford. So overcome with love, she happily recounts the length of their courtship: one week or seven days, seven nights. Each girl in line, as hardbitten as the next, asserts that there are fewer days in the week. Now it\u2019s six days and six nights. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. \u201cThe week\u2019s gone,\u201d sighs the last girl in line. Goldstone uses a tracking shot here, pulling us along with the momentum of the conversation, but also zipping us through time, as the days disappear. Time is always doing that to poor Nora, and in one brief, wholly visual moment, Goldstone encapsulates the way the narrative won\u2019t let her escape her own destiny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spoilers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The final scenes unwind with Crawford alone in his office the night of Nora\u2019s execution. Through flashbacks, it\u2019s revealed that he was actually Paulino\u2019s killer, and Nora will take the rap for him in order to keep their love affair quiet. She begs to let him do it, and even appears as an apparition in his office, begging for him to stay strong. But he can\u2019t, and when it almost seems like he\u2019s ready to do the right thing, Grant\u2019s voice echoes through his head, urging him to think of his career. He begs for Nora to ignore it, but like Peter betraying Jesus, it\u2019s obvious that for all of the love that he has, he\u2019s still internalized his brother-in-law\u2019s ambitious desires.<\/p>\n<p>Crawford finally overcomes his cowardice of losing his position and the scandal that will ensue just when the clock strikes. He tries to call, but the line\u2019s dead. It\u2019s too late. He writes one last letter and pulls a small pistol out of the desk.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/the-sin-of-nora-moran-1933-of-shattered-souls\/sin-of-nora-moran-7\/#main\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-47685\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47685\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-7.png\" alt=\"SIN OF NORA MORAN 7\" width=\"525\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-7.png 525w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-7-300x202.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a>The use of first person here\u2013 well, slightly to the right of first person\u2013 is a fascinating decision. It\u2019s not Crawford\u2019s perspective, so is it Nora\u2019s, standing over his shoulder and watching his final moments? Or is it Grant\u2019s, the narrator and manipulator, picturing himself seeing the results of his handiwork in the most intimate way?<\/p>\n<p>So much of the movie is tainted by Grant being the narrator, filtering this tragic story through a cacophony of his own inner turmoil and how the simple knowledge of how he sacrificed an innocent woman to save Crawford, an embodiment of his own ambitions and manipulations. Both Crawford and Paulino come across as ciphers in many ways, figments of Nora\u2019s fevered imagination and idealized as either a monster or a hero. But that\u2019s how Grant sees it, too. It\u2019s Nora whose dynamism haunts him.<\/p>\n<p>We see the gun put to his head and hear the body crumple, but what really happened? If Crawford killed himself, was this really the most appropriate way for Grant to tell his wife Edith? Answer: no, not at all. Or is the way the letter trailed off just Grant defining Crawford\u2019s love dying being the same as a suicide, that his choice to listen to his demons killed him spiritually?<\/p>\n<p>Who can say. \u201cIt\u2019s over now,\u201d frowns Grant in his final lines. \u201cOr maybe it\u2019s just the beginning.\u201d They burn the letters and documents\u2013 all of them\u2013 and return to their comfortable, stable lives, knowing that it\u2019s all theirs at the low cost of one sweet, innocent girl.<\/p>\n<p><strong>End spoilers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/the-sin-of-nora-moran-1933-of-shattered-souls\/sin-of-nora-moran-6\/#main\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-47684\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47684\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-6.png\" alt=\"SIN OF NORA MORAN 6\" width=\"525\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-6.png 525w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/SIN-OF-NORA-MORAN-6-300x228.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a>Zita Johann has a chipmunk face and an odd-looking body\u2013-kind of a svelte Helena Bonham Carter of sorts. I know that\u2019s not nice to say, but it factors heavily into building audience sympathy for her: we certainly wouldn\u2019t buy the movie if it happened to Myrna Loy or Miriam Hopkins. There\u2019s something inherently sad built into Zohann, a melancholy that permeates her appearance, so the brief moments of happiness that happen to her are doubly effective. Her tears when she proclaims, \u201cIt\u2019s so lovely to have a house with things that work,\u201d is simply heartbreaking.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve heard of this movie before, odds are good it\u2019s because of its famous poster&#8211;shown at\u00a0the top of this article&#8211;by Peruvian-born artist Alberto Vargas (You can read about Vargas\u2019 life <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepinupfiles.com\/vargas1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a> as well as see other examples of his NWS work.). This is doubly funny since the woman on the poster looks nothing like Zita Johann, but whatevs. The poster is beautifully composed, with the title hanging heavy over the scantily clad woman hiding her face. It\u2019s very evocative for sure.<\/p>\n<p>The Sin of Nora Moran is a remarkable little gem, an oft-told story filmed with urgency and care, and deeply sympathetic to the horrible cards dealt to the women of the early 30s. It\u2019s remarkably ambitious, coming from a poverty row studio or not, and is well worth a watch for any intelligent film fan.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Danny&#8217;s Rating: Like<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Proof That It&#8217;s Pre-Code:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Nora is called &#8220;a common cheap hooker,&#8221; which is surprisingly blunt for the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Nora goes through a lot of misfortunes, not the least of which is a rape that transforms her life.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 &#8220;Damn&#8221; or &#8220;Damnit&#8221; is muttered several times.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Moran becomes a kept woman.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 &#8230;Suicide?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Danny Reid\u00a0lives outside Tokyo, Japan, with his lovely wife and two yappy dogs.
