The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre (1948) - an American classic

Time for another look at vintage classic movies. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre was made in 1948 and was so good that Jack L. Warner, the studio boss, was quoted as saying it was "definitely the greatest motion picture we have ever made." Directed by the great John Huston and also starring Humphrey Bogart, Tim Holt, and Walter Huston (father of the director). With a whopping budget of 3.5 million dollars (a TON of money for a 1948 film) it was the most money that Paramount studios had ever spent on a motion picture. Walter Huston's performance was so good that the studio was sending notes to director John Huston telling him to tone down his Dad's performance because he was upstaging Bogart's performance. A couple famous parts of this fine movie is Walter Huston's dance which he learned during a silent picture he had made many years before and the classic line: "we don't need no stinking badges" which is actually a misquote. I hope you enjoyed this movie as much as I did...
