Content:
Film historians Leonard Maltin and Robert Osborne, and Bogart biographer Eric Lax offer background information on the production. The film briefly chronicles Bacall's arrival in Hollywood under the aegis of director Howard Hawks and her subsequent struggle to find suitable parts at Warner Bros. We learn about Bogart's interest in The Dark Road, the David Goodis book upon which Dark Passage is based. Also included is a discussion of the film's location shooting and innovative technique. Especially fascinating is a look at the involvement of Bogart and Bacall in The Committee for the First Amendment, a group of Hollywood activists that traveled to Washington in 1947 to lend support to the writers and actors harassed by the House Un-American Activities Committee.
