Key Largo

Tension and frayed nerves escalate in this black-and-white, 1948, film-noir classic thriller adapted from Maxwell Anderson's play as an eclectic group of guests, including a former WWII Army major (Humphrey Bogart), a war widow (Laure Bacall) and her wheelchair-bound father-in-law (Lionel Barrymore), and an alcoholic singer (Claire Trevor), are taken hostage at a hotel in the Florida Keys by a cigar-smoking gangster (Edgar G. Robinson) and his henchmen (Frank Sinatra, Harry Lewis, Thomas Gomez, Marc Lawrence, et al.) while a ravaging hurricane batters the property and the gangster tries to escape to Key West.
