Episode 19: The Maltese Falcon

We're kicking off our month of Humphrey Bogart with the noir that started it all: The Maltese Falcon (1941). One of two Bogie films in 1941 that rocketed him to superstar status, The Maltese Falcon has it all: murder, femme fatales, corpulent gangsters, Peter Lorre, and the eponymous bejeweled statuette. Suzie, Nikki, and Aimee talk about what makes Humphrey Bogart one of the greats, what makes a good noir, and whether the ending was justified.
