    Quite a classic detective film category. Bogart, used by Huston's director. The coolest detective in a trench coat and the toughest man in a suit. Encountered beautiful women who are obediently fooled but still smart enough to wake up. The Maltese Eagle is nothing but a gold ornament. The supporting actors are also very familiar faces. And Chinatown after that is completely one...

    The first period of film noir. The amount of information exploded and the conversation was extremely fast. There are no weaknesses, no quirks, a detective who talks about everything, never affects emotions. Compared to Bogart, who prefers the smaller Petrow, M is the murderer's child assassin. The gay speculators here are open and expressive with cunning and pleading eyes. The stuff that dreams are made...

    7 points. Now I understand who the 1940s plots in "The Book of Spirits", "Evil Force", "Warehouse No. 13", etc. pay tribute to ~ ~ This film is known as a classic in film noir, but I still look at it. It feels more general. It seems to be a common problem of old movies, with too many lines and too fast, more like a stage play, and the design of a few highlights is not new now. Watching this video is considered a make-up...

    "If I know that you can't afford to kill me, how can you scare me? Sir, there are other ways to persuade me besides killing and threatening to kill."...The film is both Bogart's personal charm Show is more of Spade's personal character show. In the initial sequence of the mystery, the hard-core private investigator's position is the lowest, and the situation is the most disadvantaged. No matter what degree of secrecy, only he is kept in the dark. but! In the process of revealing the secrets and...

    Peter Lorre has lost so much. Back then, it was not like this in M ​​is the murderer...please ask him the secret recipe for weight loss. The movie is not black, let's talk about a mess, but the sense of suspense is quite strong. You must not believe that Mao Zi is probably the central idea of ​​this...

    At the beginning of film noir, insidious women appeared. And it seems that I didn't call Humphrey Bogart from the...

    John Houston’s debut, the first film noir. 1. Humphrey Bogart's tough detective Sam Spade is cold and witty and has a deep insight into human nature. This film also defines Bogart's role type. 2. The high-contrast lighting is not stylized yet, the indoor scene is the main one, and the shadows are less used. 3. The stuff that dreams are made of. That black eagle is just like the untouchable and appetizing McGoffin. 4. Femme beauty plays well....

    I was unfortunately spoiled in the early years, so I delayed watching it until now. I still think it’s great. Maybe I personally like black, tough guy detectives, femme fatales and the like. This time I watched another thought. This film can be transplanted into a Republican drama. It revolves around the relics unearthed from the stolen Han tombs-The Meow of Weiyang Palace, the tomb thief, Juntong, and the female agent No. 76 will start a play of you and me... Can be shot in...

    A good cold and hard detective suspense film not only has a particularly outstanding detective, but also has a hard enough script, a beautiful criminal woman, tangled ambiguous love, and interesting characters such as a fat child secretary, a nagging little man, so this film wins. , And the lines are very...

    There is no love at all, they always live in their lies and face. Women are just embellishments, and ambiguity is only a means, because the nihility of life runs through and this is the backbone of all so-called noir...

  • Sam Spade: You're good. You're very good.

  • Spade: I hope you're not letting yourself be influenced by the guns these pocket-edition desperadoes are waving around, because I've practiced taking guns from these boys before; so we'll have no trouble there.
