Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLauren Bacall was terrified on the set of her first film. Fortunately, Humphrey Bogart was able to put her at ease with humor and acting tips. Bacall had nervous shakes in her first scenes and quickly learned that keeping her chin down and her eyes up kept her head from trembling. It developed into a trademark sultry look.
- GoofsWhen Morgan throws water at Eddie, the bucket is obviously empty - noticeable both in the way it's handled and in a momentary glimpse of the insides before the camera cuts to Eddie.

Featured review
... Bogart is held in high esteem for his career of acting. He was just that damn good.
Forget all of the top ten lists, awards, honorable mentions, etc. It's really hard to put a finger on it exactly, but his ability to transform what in a script is a mediocre character with average, even sometimes corny lines, into someone who you always seem to be rooting for - someone who's delivery is always convincing - has to be proof of natural skill.
The interplay between he and Bacall is some of the most unforced, natural acting ever to grace the big screen. And what could be sexier than Bacall's flirting before they kissed? One not to be missed.
