I agree, very good film. I read somewhere that the Frederich March role was originally meant for Spencer Tracy. Not sure how much truth to that though. I had read stories for years over how the Bogart-Tracy vehicle fell apart in a dispute over billing. In later years, however, one of Bogart’s agents, Phil Gersh, said that Bogie had personally told his friend, Spencer Tracy, that he (Bogart) would gladly relinquish top billing. “I don’t care about that,” he told Spence. However, for reasons Gersh did not know, Tracy pulled away from the production and Fredric March got the part.
