The Night Is Ours (French: La nuit est à nous) is a 1930 German drama film directed by Roger Lion, Carl Froelich and Henry Roussel and starring Marie Bell, Henry Roussel and Jean Murat.[1] It was made in Berlin as the French-language version of the 1929 German film The Night Belongs to Us. The film is the first example of those international productions with a French version.[2] It was shot at the Tempelhof Studios of UFA.
The film received mildly positive response, praising the performances of Bell, Roussel and Gérald.[3]
