Movie overview and plot by Anagha Shashank

Movie in-short: Marcos is an arrogant jai-alai player who seduces and discards women until he himself becomes the object of a cunning revenge.

Movie story-line: The arrogant Arizmendi, pelota champion, lives intoxicated by his success and disdain for women who love him. Arizmendi commits blackmail to lose a game. Convinced to get away with it, Arizmendi does not meet the covenant and must face the villainous revenge Marcial Gomez.

Movie synopsis: In "La noche avanza" there are no good or decent characters. There are only anti-heroes and self-assumed victims who do not hesitate a second to become perpetrators to take revenge on their own perpetrators: jealous, liars or possessive women, dangerously self-destructive; And men whose maximum value is opportunism. There is no trait of kindness here, only facets of selfishness. Considering the improbability of this happening (not only in Mexican cinema of that time but in cinema in general), La noche avanza has a spectacular and quirky freshness.In addition, the frenzy accelerates as the night advances. Quite a few scenes from the second half of this film could be considered even pre- tarantinescan. So far the best movie I've found of the so-called Mexican Noir and the second best of the director Roberto Gavaldón (after Macario, 1960).
