John Huston’s “The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre,” is an adventure film in which the pursuit made is not an end in itself but the excuse for a fatalistic character study in which the moral differences between an older wiser man, and the mistrustful, middle-aged man become downright apparent, and between the younger man must decide.This is one of the best films that examines the greed that gradually gets the better of good people. This is one of Bogart’s incredible performances, uniquely about paranoia that spirals into madness, and the breaking of the bond with other characters created a frenzy atmosphere that only Huston can furnish.
