The Maltese Falcon (1941) | Ep. 128

Luke, Matt, and Westy are on the case as we head to 1940s San Francisco for John Huston's genre-defining noir. We're talking Bogart at his most iconic, a directorial debut that shouldn't have worked, and one of the great Hollywood MacGuffins. We dig into how a first-time director got the best out of Hollywood's most difficult star, why this third adaptation finally cracked it, and the ensemble cast that made every scene crackle.
