Episode Description
Show Notes
It’s time for another noir with a prototypical McGuffin – 1941’s Maltese Falcon featuring the crackling dialog of Dashiell Hammett. Bogart, Greenstreet and Lorre make their first film all together, pitted against each other in the search for the titular bejeweled bird. Complete with a disarming dame, easily disarmed villains and so many twists you might forget a whole boat burns up. Recommendations: Hammett (1982), Amadeus (1984) Next up: Titanic (1997) Email us at [email protected] Twitter: @latecomerspod Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com and @AmityArmstrong on Twitter Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/
