" Notes: The first thing that really stroke me is the character portrayed by Humphrey Bogart. Indeed, so far, even though I thought he was a pretty good actor, he seemed to have a rather limited range since he always played the same character over and over again, the cool no-nonsense anti-hero with the heart in the right place. Not this time though, that’s for sure. Indeed, this time, he was something completely different, some kind of pathetic paranoid back-stabbing SOB and he did it brillia"

"First viewing - June 6th I decided that Saturday I'd just stay on the couch and watch movies all day, only breaking for meals. After breakfast I kicked it off with The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, a film I've wanted to watch for some time now. It's a very well-made film, and worthy of its classic status. The cast does an excellent job all around, and I liked the story about how greed can affect men. I thought it was great for the most part, and I'd gladly sit through it again."
"There lies a certain irony in the fact that Humphrey Bogart, the most highly paid star of his era, would use his hard-earned creative freedom to play against type as a down-on-his-luck loser blinded by greed in a movie about gold digging that would, in turn, prove a box office dud. But where there is irony, there is truth, and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre remains one of the most insightful films ever made about greed and the thorny effects of temptation on human nature.
