The Maltese Falcon (1941)



If you haven't seen The Maltese Falcon, make that your first sojourn into film noir.




If you go to the Internet Movie Datase (www.imdb.com) you will generally be able to see at least trailers from most movies, if not clips.

Visit there now to see a 1941 movie trailer in all its glory.

Who is this man?
He makes crime a career --
and ladies a hobby
He's as fast on the draw--
as he is in the drawing room.

Humphry Bogart as the most ruthless lover you've ever met
Mary Astor as the most exciting woman he's ever met

It's Dashiell Hammett's greatest novel
The Maltese Falcon

Such amazing adventures!
Such strange drama!
It's a masterpiece of mystery!

Humphrey Bogart topping his smashing success in High Sierra
Mary Astor greater than in The Great Lie

The Maltese Falcon
Another great story from the author of The Thin Man
