Loved the cast. Crotchety Lionel Barrymore always cracks me up -- I always hear the Underdog cartoon character Simon Bar Sinister. Edward G. was an exceptionally despicable little slimeball. Cowardly, too; sweating bullets over a little breeze (lol). The more I've seen Claire Trevor's performances, (e.g. "Born To Kill", "Murder, My Sweet"), the more impressed I am with her. The woman was gritty. And naturally, there's those two. The idyllic Hollywood romantic couple. Sorry, folks, can't resist a chorus: "We had it all... Just like Bogie and Bacall... Starring in our own late, late show... Sailin' away to Key Largo..." Awesome John Huston flick. Max Steiner's score, too. FIVE STARS.

This one of Bogat's best with a great cast. Edward G. is great as a has been ganster. Lauren Bacal is great in her part.( Bogart's real wife ) Something to look for the name of the boat Santana. That was the name of Bogart's production company

Very dramatic film, Edward G Robinson's gangster isn't even half-way lovable in this one! Only film where Bogart shoots Edward G , and not the other way around! Good stuff!

This movie is okay- I love Lauren Bacall's character, sort of little girlish (but great). Perfect ending.

Classic B&W. Some now silly FX, but by the standards of the 1940s, pretty good. Worth watching if only to see Claire Trevor's Oscar-winning performance.
