Description: Bogart plays a man convicted of murdering his wife who escapes from prison in order to prove his innocence. Bogart finds that his features are too well known, and is forced to seek some illicit backroom plastic surgery. The entire pre-knife part of the film is shot from a Bogart's-eye-view, with us seeing the fugitive for the first time as he starts to recuperate from the operation in the apartment of a sympathetic young artist (played by Bacall) for whom he soon finds affection. But what he's really after is revenge.

Also a set of extras included:

* Hold Your Breath and Cross Your Fingers featurette - featuring film historians Leonard Maltin and Robert Osborne, and Bogart biographer Eric Lax, at just over 10 minutes, the short 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 also learn about Bogart's interest in The Dark Road, the David Goodis book upon which Dark Passage is based, and how he and producer Jerry Wald needed to convince a reluctant Jack Warner to buy the "bleak" property. Examinations of the lives of Goodis and director-writer Delmer Daves are also included, as well as 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. Despite the best intentions, Bogart himself became ensnared in political intrigue, and the fallout haunted him for the rest of his life.

* Slick Hare - Bugs Bunny cartoon featuring an animated Bogart as a demanding nightclub customer who threatens to gun down waiter Elmer Fudd if he's not served a dish of fried rabbit in 20 minutes. Fudd frantically searches the kitchen until he happens upon that "wascally wabbit" Bugs munching carrots in a corner. Typical antics ensue, with hilarious depictions of other famous restaurant guests, including Frank Sinatra, Ray Milland, the Marx Brothers, Sydney Greenstreet and Carmen Miranda.

* Trailer - a beautifully restored original trailer shamelessly misleads viewers by playing up the Bogart-Bacall romantic angle in Dark Passage and ignoring the more potent and predominate murder mystery. The trailer opens with a theater usher referencing the duo's previous pictures, lulling the audience into the lie that Dark Passage will be a carbon copy — hard evidence of the studio's nervousness over the film's risky style and somber story.

Description:An automobile is blown up as it crosses the Mexican border into the United States. Mike Vargas, a high ranking Mexican narcotics official on honeymoon with his bride, Susie, is drawn into the investigation because a Mexican national has been accused of the crime. The figurative and physical presence of Hank Quinlan as the 330 pound sheriff looms all over. Quinlan is a fanatic where "justice" is concerned, even if obtaining it involves planting evidence. Quinlan's reputation for law and order enables him to bend the law without question until Vargas confronts him. From that point on, it's a battle of wits between the two that, with an accelerating pace, rushes to a climax.

Rating 9.0/10
Runtime: 96 min
Language: Englishbr /> Country: USA
Directed by: Sidney Lumet
IMDb Link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050083/

Robert Webber ... Juror #12

Description: A 12-man jury is sent to begin deliberations in the first-degree murder trial of an 18-year-old Puerto Rican boy accused in the stabbing death of his father, where a guilty verdict means an automatic death sentence. They come from different walks of life - the foreman, Juror No.1 is an energetic and accommodating football coach, Juror No. 2 is a quiet but curious bank clerk, Juror No.3 is an energetic and stubborn businessman, Juror No. 4 is a respected and critical broker, Juror No. 5 is a young Baltimore Orioles fan, Juror No. 6 is a tough house painter, Juror No.7 is a loud and fast-talking salesman, Juror No.8 is a quiet architect, Juror No. 9 is an intelligent and observant old man, Juror No. 10 is a loud and obnoxious garage owner, Juror No. 11 is an East European watchmaker nd finally Juror No. 12 is an energetic advertising agent who loves to crack jokes. Action takes place in a small room, on a hot summer day, and the case appears to be open-and-shut - the defendant has a weak alibi; a knife he claimed to have lost is found at the murder scene and several witnesses either heard screaming, saw the killing or the boy fleeing the scene. Eleven of the jurors immediately vote guilty; only Juror No. 8 (Mr. Davis, played by Henry Fonda) casts a not guilty vote. At first Mr. Davis' bases his vote moreso for the sake of discussion after all, the jurors must believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant is guilty. As the deliberations unfold, the story quickly becomes a study of the jurors' complex personalities (which range from wise, bright and empathetic to arrogant, prejudiced and merciless), preconceptions, backgrounds and interactions. That provides the backdrop to Mr. Davis' attempts in convincing the other jurors that a "not guilty" verdict might be appropriate.

Description: George Bailey has spent his entire life giving of himself to the people of Bedford Falls. He has always longed to travel but never had the opportunity in order to prevent rich skinflint Mr. Potter from taking over the entire town. All that prevents him from doing so is George's modest building and loan company, which was founded by his generous father. But on Christmas Eve, George's Uncle Billy loses the business's $8,000 while intending to deposit it in the bank. Potter finds the misplaced money and hides it from Billy. When the bank examiner discovers the shortage later that night, George realizes that he will be held responsible and sent to jail and the company will collapse, finally allowing Potter to take over the town. Thinking of his wife, their young children, and others he loves will be better off with him dead, he contemplates suicide. But the prayers of his loved ones result in a gentle angel named Clarence coming to earth to help George, with the promise of earning his wings. He shows George what things would have been like if he had never been born. In a nightmarish vision in which the Potter-controlled town is sunk in sex and sin, those George loves are either dead, ruined, or miserable. He realizes that he has touched many people in a positive way and that his life has truly been a wonderful one.
