  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

Being a Bogart fan, this was one I couldn't pass up. And, it is mostly in line with the film, even to the point of my not quite understanding how all the pieces fit together. Still, a noir (or proto-noir) piece that was enjoyable and made me long for the film again.
