106 minute running time, so about ten minutes too long … started out sort of promising but then it became clear that the story was no good, pretty dumb … Lauren Baccall, though, wow… she’s beautiful and has this weird deep smoker’s voice that is really wonderful, I could watch her alone for hours … I wonder if she was in any truly good movies? Bogart is a likable little weasel, as usual, but I don’t know why he got as much work as he did, a bit of a mystery (and he was married to Bacall!?! Sweet Jesus). Wanted to recommend this one, but just can’t, the story is too ridiculous. John Farr liked it enough to recommend it though. My picks are the top 1% though, the creme de la creme.

Make you look like a bulldog or a monkey.
