96 minute running time, so the perfect length … movie adaptation of a stage play, shot on a Warner Bros. set (not in the Keys) … once again the scrawny weasel Bogart (who’s good in this one) and the beautiful Bacall (her smoker’s voice makes me swoon) … kind of an interesting story, mobsters and good people stuck together in a hotel during a hurricane … heavy-handed moralizing though … Edward G. Robinson can’t really pull off the crime boss thing, he’s too short and fat … other mobster “Ziggy” better, but the forced hilarity among mob guys ruined things … John Farr recommended this … I’m going to hold off from giving it a recommendation until I see more from ‘48.

One Rocco more or less isn't worth dying for.
