The film was Bacall’s first movie and the project on which she and Bogart met. Their love scenes couldn’t be any spicier. Full Review |

4/5 |
As the hard-boiled professional fisherman who gives his ample ingenuity to a cause, Mr. Bogart is almost as impressive as he was as Rick, the Casablanca host. Full Review |
