S6E34 - #67: The Treasure of The Sierra Madre (1948)

Show Notes Come with us to Mexico as we learn about the Hays Code and how to make a villain a protagonist as we watch John Huston’s The Treasure of the Sierra Madre from 1948. Down on their luck in an inhospitable (to them) town, Dobbs and Curtain try their luck at gold, with all the caucasity you would expect. We discuss what makes a western, how to kill off your main characters, how you miss that you are panhandling from Tom Wolff (as played by John Huston himself), when a man is leading and when he is supporting. It’s a ride!   Recommendations: John Huston’s other works, specifically The Night of the Iguana and Moby Dick; Partner Track (Netflix)   Next up: The Matrix (1999)                                                                                            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/ This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
