Between Night and Dawn (German: Zwischen Nacht und Morgen) is a 1931 German drama film directed by Gerhard Lamprecht and starring Aud Egede-Nissen, Oskar Homolka, and Eduard von Winterstein.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Otto Moldenhauer. It is a remake of the 1927 silent film Tragedy of the Street starring Asta Nielsen. It was originally intended that she should reprise her role for the sound remake, but ultimately Norwegian actress Aud Egede-Nissen was cast in the role. The film premiered at the Gloria-Palast in Berlin.
