I agree. The ending really shows their true character. <br /><br />Toto, Thank you. I hope you get a chance to see the film, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, at least once. I think sometimes the back story is just as interesting as the film.<br /><br />Aki, Thank you. I agree Treasure of the Sierra Madre, is also one of my favorite Bogart films.<br /><br />Sark, Thank you. I had forgotten the parody of the "stinkin' badges" line in Mel Brooks' BLAZING SADDLES.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476174860119487509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-24182581132270325882010-04-06T07:49:37.238-04:002010-04-06T07:49:37.238-04:00Thanks for a great write-up, Dawn.

Most people may already know this, but there's a funny parody of the "stinkin' badges" line in Mel Brooks' BLAZING SADDLES. I think John Huston is so mean in his cameo in TREASURE! I hope he wasn't like that as a director. Always fun to read what you've written, Dawn!sarkoffagushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922698736476674377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-14028151924538426302010-04-05T18:57:04.335-04:002010-04-05T18:57:04.335-04:00Dawn, I agree with everyone else about not knowing...Dawn, I agree with everyone else about not knowing about the author. It was indeed very interesting to read. This is my favorite Bogart film. I think it is his best performance. You are right about greed being a bad thing. The whole story hinges around it. The ending is one I clearly remember well. A nice movie review and I enjoyed it.Akihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037507780056714337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-25311945430601439672010-04-05T16:24:39.996-04:002010-04-05T16:24:39.996-04:00Dawn, I enjoyed your review and thought it was rea...Dawn, I enjoyed your review and thought it was really interesting to read the back story on the novelist. I don't think I have ever seen "Treasure" but I had heard its famous line of dialogue quoted.

The story just pulls you right in and you are constantly wondering what's going to happen at the end. The ending is also great.Kimberly J.M.
