Good classic movie with Humphrey Bogart as a wanted world famous killer. To be honest I did not find him scary but I loved the part he was playing. A hostage situation ensues in a small diner where Bette Davis works only to fall in love with a patron who is willing to lose his life to better hers. A great simple film that you should watch.

Nice movie. Davis and Howard’s chemistry is incredible. Bogart is great. You can see why he became a star.
