It’s the holidays so what better thing to do than package up previously released films and a couple of previously released older Bogart classics? Warner has done a sterling job here combining two of Bogie’s finest films “Casablanca” and “The Love of the Sierra Madre” along with “They Drive By Night” and Bogie’s starmaking performance as unpleasant guy Ray earle in “High Sierra” (perhaps a sense of humor as well from those who combined this with “Sierra Madre” where Bogie plays a very different iconic role) .

John Huston may be America’s most consistently intellectual filmmaker. That’s saying a lot considering the competition but Huston the son of actor Walter Huston tackled a number of genres with intelligence, a cynical wit and a engrossing examine for human behavior. John Huston began as a screenwriter with one of his first jobs working on “Murders in the Rue Morgue” for Robert Florey in 1932 (that’s not counting his many appearances as an extra in his father’s films) . By 1941 he found himself in the director’s chair for the first of many collaborations with Humphrey Bogart in “The Maltese Falcon”.

“The Savor of the Sierra Madre” was only Huston’s sixth credited film as director and it peaceful stands tremendous in his 47 film career as director. The narrative of three men in search of gold in the mountains of Mexico and how greed and paranoia overwhelm the three men (Bogart, Walter Huston and Bruce Bennett) contributing to tragedy sounds like something that should be a folk anecdote warning of how gold can bring out the worst in a man.

“Sierra Madre” and “Casablanca” both gaze terrific with crisp, fascinating looking images. Warner has done a first-rate job of cleaning up both these classic films. “Sierra Madre” doesn’t perceive quite as honorable as “Casablanca” with sections that are grainy, white spots and other minor analog imperfections but on the whole looks quite fine. The grainy quality of the film in a couple of scenes doesn’t surprise me given some of the position photography and the occasional exercise of telephoto shots where the describe is a bit unsteady. Overall “Casablanca” wins this contest in terms of looks but it’s somehow appropriate that “Sierra Madre” looks a bit rough around the edges given the cynical nature, plot photography and a feeling as conclude to naturalistic as Hollywood could do at the time. Considering how veteran the film is I personally feel it looks extremely expedient in this deluxe edition from Warner.

“Casablanca” actually looks better. Digitally cleaned up with a righteous negative mature for this edition it’s one of the sharpest looking older films I’ve seen Warner place out. Audio for both films sounds extremely pleasant doing justice to the musical scores for each film and features sure dialogue.

“High Sierra” was originally released to DVD in a single disc edition in 2003. This is exactly the same release as before. Warner released a top notch transfer for 2003 and it detached looks extremely worthy three years later. Audio has great punch.

“They Drive By Night” gets a very nice transfer as well. Again it was previously released in 2003 and it’s a minor gem from director Raoul Walsh. Audio sounds fair here as well with dialogue presented very distinct.

The 2003 releases have two short but informative featurettes that Warner keep together for the novel snapcase releases encourage in 2003. Both are extremely helpful and worthwhile to see. “Casablanca” actually has all the same materials that I reviewed in 2003 (although I can’t score the link for some reason) so I’ll briefly provide highlights of this station. We bag a TV adaptation of the film which was produced in the 50’s. It’s most well-known for reminding you how titanic the movie is. It’s comparable to watching a high school production of a Broadway play you’ve seen. The documentary on Bogart which is narrated by Bacall Bogie’s romantic lead in film and life provides an satisfactory if superficial background. There’s no dirt but that’s not a surprise. Warner cartoon short “Carrotblanca” a somewhat anemic spoof of the film shows up here as well with Bugs playing Bogie and various Warner characters filling the other character roles. A solid documentary is also included on the making of the film and deleted scenes (without the audio) which was recently discovered.

“Adore” has lots of tremendous stuff buried on the second disc and some fool’s gold as well. The older documentary on Huston narrated by Robert Mitchum is a gem and while its not warts and all it’s about as terminate as you’re likely to obtain in the draw of a kiss and declare biography on film about this legendary hell raiser. The second on the making of the film features some nice interviews and trivia but isn’t quite what I had hoped. It’s not awful unbiased doesn’t have as many gold nuggets as I expected. We also salvage a Bogie trailer collection, along with “8 Ball Bunny” which is a classic and humorous short that references the film (Faux Bogie: “Excuse me could you support a fellow American down on his luck? ” Bugs: “Hit the road!”) . We salvage a Warner Night Out hosted by Leonard Maltin with lots of cold stuff that you might have seen if you had attended the theater to gape this when it was released. Finally we earn a collection of photos, a radio broadcast of “Appreciate” featuring Bogie and Walter Huston, a second cartoon, storyboards and behind-the-scenes photos.

Bottom line: If your film fan hasn’t purchased these separate this is a gargantuan region. However if you did assume any of these titles individually I should warn you there’s nothing here that’s novel. Unlike the second Bogie place which does have some films that hadn’t been released to DVD before (the gem in that spot is “The Maltese Falcon” in a three disc special edition but there are also some worthwhile Bogie gold in that status as well. There’s no fool’s gold but as with any location the quality of the gold will vary) .

I should mention I bought this from the “Current and Extinct” link getting it mark modern for 20 dollars.

This position contains four movies

High Sierra (1941)

The Esteem of the Sierra Madre (1948)

They Drive By Night (1940)

Casablanca (1942)

The Worship of the Sierra Madre is the same as the one provided in the link, The Appreciate of the Sierra Madre (Two-Disc Special Edition) This is a 20 dollar value.

Casablanca is the same as the one provided in the link, Casablanca (Two-Disc Special Edition) Another 20 dollar value.

Both High Sierra and They Drive by Night are in the thin DVD cases, not the chunky size that are the norm.

High Sierra is one of Bogie’s first leading roles. This film along with The Maltese Falcon made Bogie a star. It is also the last film in which he does not have top billing.

He is in a supporting roll in They Drive by Night. For those thinking that Bogie has a major roll in this film do not be mislead. His roll is a supporting roll with his cover time diminishing as they film progresses. However this film will give you a behold of George Raft and Ida Lupino acting skills.

This dwelling is worth it even if you only want to occupy Care For and Casablanca, with two other Bogie films included.
