Product Information
This heartfelt drama about a gangster on the run is the film for which Humphrey Bogart first received wide-scale recognition. Bogie and costar Leslie Howard were both brought on board after appearing in the successful stage play by Pulitzer prize-winner Robert E. Sherwood. Director Archie Mayo follows the original closely to create a fast-paced and gripping suspense drama with existential motifs. Leslie Howard plays a perfect gentleman--a lonely intellectual in search of meaning. When he lands in a deserted café, he finds what he's looking for in the form of young Bette Davis, whose character yearns for the artistic climate of gay Paris. But both Howard and Davis are in for a bumpy ride when dangerous gangster played by Bogart takes over, holding up the joint at gunpoint. The small group of hostages take turns telling their tales, fearing death, while Bogie plots to reunite with his gang and his girl. Few films in history can stand up to THE PETRIFIED FOREST, which combines the words of literary giant Robert E. Sherwood with the sizzling performances of Howard, Davis, and Bogart.Product Identifiers

An American Cinema Classic
A very good old-school black-and-white dialog-driven movie with a super-star cast, including Humphrey Bogart, Leslie Howard and Bette Davis. A claustrophobic powder-keg plot with great characters that is never boring, even by today's standards. An American cinema classic. This one will stand as long as people enjoy watching movies ...and, after all these years, it has historical cutural significance as well. The DVD image is as good as it gets for a movie from that period (1936).Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Early (1936) Leslie Howard, Bette Davis ...
Early (1936) Leslie Howard, Bette Davis and, finally, evil Humphrey Bogart tale at a small cafe in the desert. Excellent performances by all plus pro supporting cast.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
