The Maltese Falcon

I borrowed it from the library today, and geez was it good. The plot twists and turns at every step--really makes me wanna read the book.

 

my first Film Noir... i very much like it. i enjoy Humphrey Bogart's acting in it... he's very smooth in his delivery. and yeah, that twist was so well formed shh...

i dunno 'bout the book, let's hope you will not be disappointed!

 

Read the book for school and saw the movie. *snores*

 

LOVED it! It is considered the first Film Noir film.

 

Yea, thats right, i saw it on the big screen at grant park in chicago.

when i was like 12 haha.

 

I LOVE Bogie!

And this is one of his best films! arty:

 

It had been made twice before as a talky.

 

I hate to used cliches, but much as I loved the movie, the book was better. IT was edgier (the torture scenes there were dropped from the movie, for example).

 

Excellent movie. Very confusing as to who is involved!!

 

I recommend other Huston movies
-Treasure of the Sierra Madre
-Fat City
-Wise Blood
-The Misfits
