About The Maltese Falcon (1941) A gallery of high-living lowlifes will stop at nothing to get their sweaty hands on a jewel-encrusted falcon. Detective Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart) wants to find out why -- and who'll take the fall for his partner's murder. An all-star cast (including Sydney Greenstreet, Mary Astor, Peter Lorre and Elisha Cook Jr.) joins Bogart in this crackling mystery masterwork written for the screen (from Dashiell Hammett's novel) and directed by John Huston. This 1941 Academy Awards Nominee* catapulted Bogart to stardom and launched Huston's directorial career - all with a bird and a bang. Special Features: 1. Commentary by Bogart Biographer Eric Lax 2. Featurette The Maltese Falcon: One Magnificent Bird 3. Breakdowns of 1941: Studio Blooper Reel 4. Makeup Tests 5. Becoming Attractions: The Trailers of Humphrey Bogart 6.

Two hard-luck drifters (Humphrey Bogart and Tim Holt) and a grizzled prospector (Walter Huston) discover gold. Then greed and paranoia set in. Shot in Mexico, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre was at that time considered a rather expensive production. John Huston won the 1948 Academy Award for his Directing and Writing and his father (Walter Houston) took the Best Actor in a Supporting Role Academy Award. Without awards, but with enduring acclaim, is Bogart's performance, transforming from a likable hobo to a heartless thug simmering in greed. Treasure of the Sierra Madre's place on the American Film Institute's "Top 100 American Films" list reaffirms it's still a powerful movie. Special Features: 1.
