The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
The dramatic film revolves around a series of difficult events that will be experienced by Dobbs and Courten. Despite the difficult circumstances they are going through. But their lives will change for the better. After Dobbs and Courten meet an old hunter, he claims the hills are full of gold, and if they can get the money, he'll go with them. In the end they get the money from McCormick after 'little persuasion', and the three go up in the hills as good friends, but will they return that way?

A finely-crafted western-style character drama where greed and paranoia drive desperate men over the edge.

Transcends the medium to become a mandatory viewing experience for anyone that identifies themselves as a human being, period.

an unconventional western and a serious drama

The movie has never really been about gold but about character, and Bogart fearlessly makes Fred C. Dobbs into a pathetic, frightened, selfish man -- so sick we would be tempted to pity him, if he were not so undeserving of pity.

Classic '40s tale of greed, betrayal, and murder.

Greed, a despicable ion out of which other base ferments may spawn, is seldom treated in the movies with the frank and ironic contempt that is vividly manifested toward it in Treasure of Sierra Madre.

John Huston has rarely been in better form than in this 1948 study of gold fever and worse obsessions among an unlikely trio of prospectors...

This is one of the most visually alive and beautiful movies I have ever seen; there is a wonderful flow of fresh air, light, vigor, and liberty through every shot.

There's a quite enjoyable yarn buried under the hollow laughter.

The characters here are probed and thoroughly penetrated, not through psychoanalysis but through a crucible of human conflict, action, gesture and expressive facial tones.

Treasure of Sierra Madre is one of the best things Hollywood has done since it learned to talk; and the movie can take a place, without blushing, among the best ever made.
