This crazy cast of well known characters chases after a Maltese Falcon statue that supposedly is solid gold. People die, betray each other and there is a true sense of mystery here. In the end, I don't think anyone won what they wanted but getting there is a twister of a ride. Black and white noir from the 1940's.
