Following the murder of his partner, a San Francisco private detective investigates and gets involved with a mysterious woman and three unscrupulous adventurers, all of whom are competing to obtain a valuable fabled falcon statuette.
Academy Award nominated film that defined Humphrey Bogart, who plays the private detective Sam Spade. The supporting cast led by Mary Astor, Sidney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre and Elisha Cook Jr. are in fine form and play well off each other. With John Huston in his directorial debut and the crisp dialogue, this is one of the greats. Do not miss it.
