High Sierra (1941)
Country: US
Technical: bw 96m
Director: Raoul Walsh
Cast: Humphrey Bogart, Ida Lupino, Joan Leslie, Arthur Kennedy
Synopsis:
A con just out of prison is hired by his former boss to pull off a heist on a California mountain resort with inexperienced men.
Review:
Archetypally robust and ill-fated crime drama, with a further re-modelling of the Bogart character into a criminal, but one we root for. The California sierras form the backdrop for a no-way-out showdown with the law enforcement.
