This week it is once again taken back to 1941 for what is considered the FIRST noir film ever: The Maltese Falcon. Joined by Nick this week is old-school film enthusiast, Nick Weir. In this episode, they discuss which aspects still hold to today's film standards, the early noir traits developed and shown in this film, Humphrey Bogart and his performance, the formation of the trans-atlantic accent, the meaning behind the character's names, the similarities to 'Casablanca' and 'A Shot in the Dark,' the ending of the film, and much more!
