Reseña de la época escribió: El cine polaco viene manteniendo en los últimos Festivales -hasta en San Sebastián- un excelente nivel y una acusada personalidad. De pasada, anotemos una constante coincidencia en orden a sus temas: escapismo; alejamiento de los problemas inmediatos actuales; por tanto, preferencia por asuntos y ambientes de otros tiempos. ¿Por qué? Formalmente, las películas polacas seleccionadas alcanzan, todas, una soberbia calidad. Realización e interpretación, sobresalientes. Pociag, proyectada en Venecia, confirma cuanto antecede. Jerzy Kawalerowicz ha construido su film sobre un tema mínimo, quizá para demostrar su virtuosismo de realizador. Los ocupantes de unos departamentos del coche cama de un tren nocturno, personajes de una leve trama de intriga dramática, son los únicos elementos de los que se sirve para edificar, con perfección asombrosa, un brillante ejercicio de realizador. Un acabado, redondo curso de director. Y la confirmación de la extraordinaria calidad de técnicos e intérpretes polacos.David Felipe escribió:La excepcional Tren nocturno (Pociag, 1959), emparentada con dos filmes de Hitchcock, Alarma en el expreso y Sospecha, nos muestra a un director con una gran capacidad de crear atmósferas y poseedor de un innato conocimiento para penetrar en las diferentes psicologías de los personajes.Kawalerowicz’s film, though released in 1959, has a detached, sixties cool about it. The main theme here is really the spaces between people, the isolation of identity — existential business that Italian masters like Antonioni took on in the following decade. The film’s metaphorical conceit, which presents us a microcosm of suffering humanity, well, that idea goes at least as far back as Grand Hotel (1932).Brightlights film journal review escribió: Call it Train of Fools. In Jerzy Kawalerowicz’s masterwork, a crowded night express travels overbooked with the despairing, the lovelorn, the lustful, a handful of priests and a concentration camp survivor. Bound for the Baltic coast, it also carries a wife-murderer fleeing from the police.
Among those boarding the train in the late afternoon sunlight is a tall, good-looking, rather dapper man in sunglasses, Jerzy (Leon Niemczyk), who sweats profusely as he tries to make himself invisible. This of course could be our murderer.
In his desperate need for privacy, Jerzy reminds us of the fugitive Roger Thornhill played by Cary Grant, another tall dapper man, in North by Northwest (1959). Like Cary, the mystery man in Night Train ends up in a sleeping car with a mysterious blonde, but finds a different sort of wrinkle in the sheets. The blonde, Marta, has a bit of the sang-froid about her that might remind you of Eva Marie Sainte, except that she can’t hide the emotional bruising that’s settled in around her eyes. What’s her story? And, in spite of his distractions, Jerzy is instantly attracted to her voluptuous mystery, as she is to his. Why the sweat-soaked armpits in his Arrow shirt? The aura of sexual intrigue brings Night Train in line with other rail journey allegories with mysterious blondes, like von Sternberg’s exquisite Shanghai Express (1932). For a while, in Night Train, the anticipation rides not on who the murderer is, but, as the train settles in for sleep, on when Jerzy and Marta will begin making love.
Night Train was shot in gorgeous black and white, seemingly using mostly ambient light. The elegant framing, which has people disappearing into and emerging from deep shadow, makes for hipster visuals of lonely disconnect.
The score, by Andrej Trzaskowski, is fifties cool jazz, featuring vibes and sax. Woven within the fabric is a female scat vocal, with a lilting, lullaby feel, which is so reminiscent of the wordless vocal that underscored much of Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby (1968) that you wonder if Kawalerowicz’s compatriot may have remembered it and ordered its near likeness for his film
