CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Kasper Gutman (Sydney Greenstreet) and Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart) have their first meeting, with Sam pretending to flip out over Gutman's bold refusal to diclose information about the Maltese Falcon.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
After two previous film versions of Dashiell Hammett's detective classic The Maltese Falcon, Warner Bros. finally got it right in 1941--or, rather, John Huston, a long-established screenwriter making his directorial debut, got it right, simply by adhering as closely as possible to the original. Taking over from a recalcitrant George Raft, Humphrey Bogart achieved true stardom as Sam Spade, a hard-boiled San Francisco private eye who can be as unscrupulous as the next guy but also adheres to his own personal code of honor. Into the offices of the Spade & Archer detective agency sweeps a Miss Wonderly (Mary Astor), who offers a large retainer to Sam and his partner Miles Archer (Jerome Cowan) if they'll protect her from someone named Floyd Thursby. The detectives believe neither Miss Wonderly nor her story, but they believe her money. Since Archer saw her first, he takes the case -- and later that evening he is shot to death, as is the mysterious Thursby. Miss Wonderly's real name turns out to be Brigid O'Shaughnessey, and, as the story continues, Sam is also introduced to the effeminate Joel Cairo (Peter Lorre) and the fat, erudite Kasper Gutman (Sydney Greenstreet, in his film debut). It turns out that Brigid, Cairo and Gutman are all international scoundrels, all involved in the search for a foot-high, jewel-encrusted statuette in the shape of a falcon. Though both Cairo and Gutman offer Spade small fortunes to find the "black bird," they are obviously willing to commit mayhem and murder towards that goal: Gutman, for example, drugs Spade and allows his "gunsel" Wilmer (Elisha Cook Jr.) to kick and beat the unconscious detective. This classic film noir detective yarn gets better with each viewing, which is more than can be said for the first two Maltese Falcons and the ill-advised 1975 "sequel" The Black Bird.

Watching Bogart and Greenstreet act together is such a treat. The entire cast did a wonderful job in playing the characters of the novel. A brilliant adaptation.
The greatest screen debut of all time, no competition
He ate them all.
It was also John Huston's directorial debut. Doesn't get much better than this.
Ya I was shocked, of course his extensive theater career helped, but my God he plays a legendary villain!
I love the low angle shot of Greenstreet. An already enormous man made to look even bigger.
Years later....I must agree. The cinemaphotrapher was a genius.
Once you find out Greenstreet was the inspiration for Jabba the Hutt, it's hard to unsee the same casual power and gravitas.
"You're either in or out- FOR KEEPS!!" Great line.
And I can tell you sir, that I enjoy listening to a man talking about how he enjoys hearing a man talk to a man who likes to talk...
I always love the dialogue in this film.
The Maltese Falcon was one of the first
B&W films I ever saw, next to The Wizard of Oz,
when I was younger. I love this film!
Side note: seeing your profile pic.. Funny,
I just watched The Thief and the Cobbler again;
The Recobbled Cut, more specifically.
That’s another excellent film;
Shame it’ll likely never be finished.
But I’m glad it’s around somehow nevertheless.
Greenstreet could read the phone book out loud and make it sound interesting.
Better and better… that’s wonderful
Sir 😊
By gad sir, you are a character.
I gotta wonder if Gutman is being honest about all these things 'better and better!' or if he was flattering no matter what Sam said.
Gutman: *Pouring liquor*
Spade: That's enough.
Gutman: We begin well, sir! I distrust a man that can't say 'when' it means he isn't afraid to admit a limit...You're a closed mouthed man?
Spade: Yeah I hate talking!
Gutman: Better and better! I like a man that doesn't like to talk! It means he loves to listen and if he loves to listen it means he weighs another man's words carefully before speaking! He doesn't just 'flap his gums' to force conversation...What would you like me to talk about? The black bird?
Spade: Nah I want to hear about your life story.
Gutman: Oh ho you're the man for me! I love a fellow that appreciates a business conversation with some personal touches. Well, I was born by my mother Ginger So and So and Father So and So Gutman...*five hours later* And that's how I came to be here! Tell me sir do you like Taco Bell?
Spade: Yeah I like Taco Bell every once in a while.
Gutman: Marvelous and marvelous! I appreciate a man that likes the fine point of life and isn't afraid to enjoy items off of Taco Bell's buck menu! I'll send Wilmer out to collect some tacos and burritos for us!
Spot on
Wow, the less known story, The Taco Bird.
"And that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship. The End."
I like how Bogie's hand tembles and he just laughs it off...
As if he even believed his own performance. ;)
Kasper Gutman was the inspiration for the Kingpin.
He's also my favorite old time film villain.
His way of speech... especially sir...
I totally see it.
damn, that camera angle on greenstreet just makes him look so much more immense.
I've always known that was the inspiration for Kingpin. So glad to have older grandparents and have grownup in a time when reading comics was still quite common.
To say nothing of the 'Woke' transformation of comics into something that would be unrecognizable to both their original creators and fans...
Mathematically correct, sir.
"I must say you have a most vilolent temper."
Gutman was named after his belly..
God, I love Sydney Greenstreet.
he was and is a lovable...I should know, I nursed his phlebitis. I'm 145 yrs old...don't tell nobody.
@@teflonmagnet the story?
I really dig Sydney.
Love the dialogue
If they made a modern adaptation of this film, Josh Brolin would be perfect as Sam Spade! :)
This is 2023 and I can't name one marquis actor who would even try it.
I'm sorry if this is really obvious but his outburst was all just an act right? I assume so because he's smiling right afterwards. I don't really understand.
He's trying to play Gutman. I think he basically wants to goad him into giving up the info, or scare him into thinking he (Spade) is going to get hold of the bird first if he doesn't tell him everything.
He's certainly playacting; the incidental music and his manner make that clear. I'm not sure what the ploy is other than just to rattle Gutman and put him off balance. Spade is playing three liars off each other, without much leverage over any of them, and needs to find advantages where he can. He knows Gutman thinks he's volatile and unpredictable, so he pushes that perception.
Its confusing why he did it. This movie is great but I still dont understand the plot.
@@ImYourHuckleberry_29 He needs info. He knows the Falcon is valuable. He needs to know what it's all about. It's like poker he was bluffing.
I love Humphrey
Violent temper
Gutman; gut-man, get it?
Why can't movies have decent dialogue anymore?
Cause they weren’t written by John Huston
@@hellbooks3024
Maccarthy let them shut up, put in jail...or leave the USA.
@@jeanpi314159 There’s some truth in that as well.
@@hellbooks3024
It was still the case after WW1 : White feather campaign attacked on Chaplin ( with the Lita Grey affair) and he had to fly away to NY an hide to protect himself and "the Kid". He never became an American...Fatty Arbuckle was no more allowed to maka movies...
Then soon in 1943, Howard Fast told how he ha troubles with the "FBI" after he denounced fascist in the State...
But what is astonishing is how it were the most famous writers in Hollywood got troubles for political reasons...
If we compare with Italy during WWII : on the contrary the most famous coming moviemakers were antifascist but ...achieved to make movies, though.
For keeps!
Well think again and think fast!!!
Takings not something you can do Judi iously u less you keep in practice.
not just a classic line but such a truism.
I wonder what gunsel means......Ooooooooohhhhhh.........damn!
Gunsel has nothing to do with firearms. It is a derogatory term for homosexuals. The word passed the censors at that time because they didn't know the slang term.
@@JAG312 It means an older man's young male lover.
Gunsel: A criminal carrying a gun.
Hammett popularized the use of what is deemed a slang word in his 1930 mystery-thriller novel, The Maltese Falcon.
@@JAG312 Actually, I think 'gunsel' had /both/ meanings.
He's playing Gutman like a cheap fiddle
Coral Roper You are correct, sir. However, Gutman has his moment too.
Go ahead...
good
