Review of High Sierra (1941) by Richard D — 10 Dec 2012
The first film where Bogart was given a lead role, and he very clearly displays his star presence. The script co-written by John Huston and W.R. Burnett is strong (I especially like Bogart's little story/threat told to Cornel Wilde) and Raoul Walsh's direction is typically solid, but it's really Bogart who elevates the film to something special.
Ida Lupino, Arthur Kennedy, Henry Travers and Barton MacLane all provide strong support.
