Eddie Muller is just simply THE BEST. Love him. I could listen to him talk forever.

I have listened to him talk forever about Noir and trust me it gets better and better the longer he talks about it. The guy is an absolute encyclopedia. And he is a very nice guy besides. It's well worth joining the film Noir Foundation so that you can have additional contacts with Eddie's writings. Or you might consider going to one of the various film Noir film festivals he puts on around the country or the annual Turner Classic Movie boat cruise or film festival in Hollywood. It's money well spent.

To me "film noir" is more about the lighting and shadows. Maltese Falcon and Casablanca are 2 of my favorites of all time. I just watched Casablanca again a couple days ago. I have probably watched each of them at least 20 times.

Once saw the first 15 min or so one day when it aired on tcm. First time seeing a Bogart movie. Was drawn to it then, and as I type this, am renting it online. Drawn to this genre also. Thanks for this upload.

what a quick witted character is of sam spade.

Consider this, there's only a single novel with Sam Spade, and Bogart had to work off it and it alone, pretty much. Sure, there are about 4 short stories or so, though I doubt they were of much use in the preparation for the role.

I love The Maltese Falcon, but I wish when they were shooting that they would have caught the mistake of the shadow of the boom mike across Spade and Wilmer when they were walking down the hall (just before Sam takes the Gunsel's guns).

These films were on tight budgets with as few re-takes as possible. Shadow most likely wasn’t seen ‘till dailies were viewed requiring an expensive re-shoot.

7:45 "There was a time believe it or not, when Hollywood didn't slavishly repeat whatever had worked the year before", a clear reflection about what Hollywood used to be and what it is now, now the market is full of unnecesary remakes, reboots, sequels and spin-offs.

This movie was the third version of this novel put to film! A remake of a remake, and the final version was the bona fide classic!

George Raft would have been an interesting choice. He couldn't have been better than Bogart, but he may have been as good. I mean, he WAS a better dancer.

Seems like ALL great films are made in San Francisco. Although the present state of the downtown area would demand that any film being made there now be a horror film. And it would obviously be a documentary. Just a thought. I live there so I know
