Yield to the Night (also titled Blonde Sinner) is a 1956 British crime drama film starring Diana Dors as a murderess sentenced to hang and spending her last days in the condemned cell in a British women's prison. The film received much positive critical attention, particularly for the skilled acting of Dors, who had previously been cast solely as a British version of the stereotypical "blonde bombshell".
