- Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart) confronts Brigid O'Shaughnessy (Mary Astor) about killing Archer.
About The Maltese Falcon (1941):
Academy Award winner Humphrey Bogart stars in this classic film noir as tough San Francisco private detective Sam Spade in the classic, convoluted story of Spade's involvement with a deadly band of international thieves who will lie, double cross and murder to obtain a small, jewel-encrusted statue known as The Maltese Falcon. Sam Spade's (Bogart) partner, Miles Archer (Jerome Cowan), accepts a job protecting a young woman (Mary Astor). Neither Spade nor Archer believe the woman or the story she tells them, but they do believe her money. Then, when Archer is murdered, Spade's search for the killer drags him in the web of lies and death spun by the desperate people seeking The Maltese Falcon.

Humphrey Bogart set the gold standard for the hard-boiled detective and John Huston(director) set the gold standard for film noir perfection.
The Maltese Falcon is a great classic!
When Bogart says that line at the end it always sends a shiver up my spine.Excellent movie,indeed.
Masterpiece!
When he keeps clenching his jaw, like he’s just barely restraining himself. Masterful acting.
Mary Astor was perfect in this scene.
Absolute classic.
Film Noir, of the 1940s and 1950s had impeccable style.
The cage of the elevator symbolizing her going to prison. Nice touch.
It going down was also very symbolic of her final destination.
One of the most viscerally affecting scenes in all Hollywood history. Frighteningly intense confrontation.
When I was a kid, my friend's parents had a replica Maltese Falcon on their fireplace mantel. I sure wish I could own one today. One of the best movies ever made, film noir or not.
What was their address? It's just curiosity, you understand.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 It was on Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. I don't recall the house number, but it was on the west side of the street, maybe 112? The family name was Thomson. Sorry that's all I got but good luck.
@@lawrencelewis2592 I was actually joking but ok. Some people in cyberland may soon descend upon that house, Peter Lorre style. The stuff dreams are made of.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 Indeed! it may interest you to know that the bona-fide "Amityville Horror" house is just down the street. Of course, that was all BS.
@@lawrencelewis2592 What was bs?
Greatest actor ever.
Everytime I hear that last line it sends a shiver up my spine.This is damned good movie,the kind Hollywood can't make anymore.
Art will last forever. This movie is the cooperation of many people who made art. That's "the stuff that dreams are made of."
Film noir at its best with the cream of talent so suited to this type of film - Lorrie, Greenstreet, Ms. Astor, Cook, Ms.Gladis George, Ward Bond - headed by the actor who embodies the genre ... Humphrey Bogart.
"...you killed Miles and you're going over for it...". What is fascinating is that even by today's harsh standards, this scene represents a powerfully written interplay between two very dangerous sociopathic characters.
Humphrey Bogart is still the best leading man Hollywood ever produced.
@thatcanadian6698........Nah. Gable was the undisputed 'King of Hollywood'.
They’ll never make anything that good again.
This is actually one of the few times a remake surpassed the original. Yes, this is the SECOND film version of The Maltese Falcon. Ten years earlier, in 1931 Ricardo Cortez starred as Sam Spade.
FILM NOIR is Celluloid Shakespeare
I remember years ago seeing a retrospective on this movie, and how it was written. It was said that the plot and writing of this film was so complicated that the writer and director felt as if this film wrote itself and that the film itself was doing the writing and directing, and that the crew of this film was along for a wild, suspenseful ride.
The Maltese Falcon was a novel written in 1930 by Dashiell Hammett.
Even Shakespeare quoted the final line.
Actually the quote is 'The stuff that dreams are made on'.
Before my time. It gives me chills that all this was going on before I was born. I absolutely love these old movies. Most of them are great. And they filmed thousands of these. ❤ These old films.
John Huston em sua estreia com diretor realiza uma obra que ajudaria construir a
base dos filmes Noir.
My dad liked Humphrey Bogart movies. He told me he liked movies with rainy scenes. He did not know they were called "film noir."
Absolutely one of the greatest films of all time with a cast that can never be matched.
The stuff that dreams are made of! 👌👌
In real life doll face played every man.
they always do
Great acting....this scene was Broadway acting at it's best but on the silver screen...
Wow just wow!! The dialogue was fantastic, I'll have some rotten nights, but that'll pass. 😢
Man o man, tough as!!
words 90 miles a hour
Those femme fatale jails are not very pleasant, just ask Eleanor Parker and she'll tell ya!
Cool 🆒 Movie 🎥
Yes
👍👍
I love this classic film. But, wow, Mary Astor really was a product of that decade and its particular definition of celluloid feminine beauty. I couldn't believe that Miles would've followed her anywhere, never mind up a blind alleyway. And her cake frosting hairdo didn't help either. yikes.
To each his own .
@@jimfritz2087 She was a beautiful woman but that makeup and hairdo....
@@MarklovesAngels Maybe it was a studio choice. She was also in " Across the Pacific " with Bogie
Boggie. Was. Also. Great. In. To. Have or. Have. Not. And. Key west. With. Edward g. Robinson
About 20 years old? She about 35 here. And she didn't age well. Catch her in Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte.
Bogie was better than Steve McQueen, Bruce Willis, Alec Baldwin, Edward G. Robinson, James Cagney all put together. There will never be another.
