Previously written about
here, we finally get the chance to see a decent print on Blu-Ray - it looks great. I realise now that all we really care about is what happened to Sean Regan - Col. Sternwood had made us care about him. Plus, he and Bogie used to trade shots between drinks - in what combat? And Eddie Mars keeps calling Bogie 'soldier' so there's some kind of intriguing back story here. Finally got the Q to watch it without falling asleep. Crackling chemistry between Bogie and Betty.
Quite a few unfamiliar faces: John Ridgely is Eddie Mars, Peggy Knudsen his wife, Regis Toomey the detective, Charles Waldron is Col. Sternwood, Charles D Brown the butler, Louis Jean Heydt is Joe Brodie, Sonia Darrin is Agnes (strangely not credited).
