The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)
Country: US
Technical: bw 126m
Director: John Huston
Cast: Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston, Tim Holt
Synopsis:
Two yankee hobos down Mexico way persuade an old timer to help them prospect for gold in the mountains, but greed and suspicion are their undoing.
Review:
Legendary fable is remembered principally for Huston Sr.'s Oscar-winning turn as a grizzled prospector. However, it also showcases Jr.'s developing visual sense and mastery of narrative - though not an ability to rein in scenery-chewing on the part of his cast.
