Great acting by Bogart, Astor and Lorre. I'm not usually a big fan of Bogart, I really don't understand his popularity. I liked The Desperate Hours, but not because he was in it. Casablanca I didn't care for at all. Mary Astor I've liked every time I've seen. I don't know that I've ever seen Lorre before (Umm, note to those reading - I had heard of Peter Lorre), if I did I didn't notice him.
But watching a story about a Private Investigator I pretty much expected everyone to be phony. Nothing really surprised me. Just like hundreds of books I've read.
I did like the quick pace and once again the strong acting. Good job John Huston.
7/10
