Wissenswertes
The actual 1937 Art Deco apartment building used in the film (located at 1360 Montgomery St. in San Francisco) is still standing as of 2023. The apartment (No. 10) is marked by a cardboard cut-out of Humphrey Bogart, which can be seen from the street. The site is visited frequently by fans of vintage film noir. The unit has one bath, one bedroom and 861 square feet, and was last sold in 2016 for $1.5M.

Patzer
After Parry's bandages are removed, there are no stitches or bruises, nor is there the sort of facial swelling that always results from plastic surgery.

Zitate
Vincent Parry: You know, it's wonderful when guys like you lose out. Makes guys like me think maybe we got a chance in this world.

7/10

Totally unconvincing star thriller which succeeds because of its professionalism

Bogart's third teaming with Lauren Bacall was in "Dark Passage," a murder-mystery film which depended upon contrivances rather than good scripting to see it through

The film opened with the use of a subjective camera (MGM used it throughout their "Lady in the Lake" that same year) with Bogart's off-camera narration establishing the plot as we watch our hero escape from prison with the intent of finding the real murderer of his wife, the crime for which he had been wrongfully jailed

Once he meets up with Bacall and goes to a plastic surgeon, the subjective camera is forgotten as Bogart now utilizes his own face and carries on the investigation

"Dark Passage" was energetically directed and written by Delmer Daves who used some atmospheric location shots in San Francisco to underscore his drama The film included an unusual number of bizarre and eccentric characters, all competently played

Agnes Moorehead essayed a superb1y schizoid characterization as a bitchy "friend" of Bogart and his dead wife Bacall showed definite signs of improvement in her acting and Bogart was properly bitter, sour and nonplussed

For all practical purposes, this film marked the conclusion of Bogart's famous "image" period Now he was to forsake his romantic leading-man roles for acting assignments which he hoped would raise him to greater heights as a performer He was to succeed, in many cases, magnificently
