Based on a play, this dialogue centric story is pretty good. At a dusty and lonely gas station diner, a young woman named Gabby dreams of someday going to Paris. She meets soulful drifter named Alan, an intellectual artist without a penny to his own name. Their lives all get twisted into a ball of tension as notorious gangster Duke Mantee (Bogart, in his debut) and his gang take everyone hostage. Themes of nature vs. man and never surrendering your true dreams are the main course of this meal, and the side dishes are hefty doses of tense suspense. If it weren't for the strong performances of Leslie Howard and Bogart, the movie would fall apart.

This film launched Bogart's career and for that reason alone should be respected... it's basically a filmed stage play and Leslie Howard acts like he is doing it live - which seems a little off

This was a pretty funny and cool movie. Bogart is awesome in this movie, and all of the acting and cast is excellent as well. The whole movie was confined for the most part to a single cafe, but being adapted from a Broadway play, this doesn't surprise me. Great movie, great characters, a must see for Bogart fans! Leslie Howard is also really good in this movie.

Every character is not only an individual but someone indicative of a larger societal force. Despite there being many forces opposing the main characters, Gabrielle Maples and Alan Squier, I found myself at least partially in sympathy with almost all of the other characters. Amidst the desolation of the old ways lie the seeds of a new vitality. As great as any film I have ever seen.

Bette Davis is a teenager in this, and Bogey is far younger than he plays. It's worth seeing just to see them at the very beginning of their careers. Also that sense of endless anonymity at the edge of the desert - do we even have that in the US any more?
