Dark Passage is a doohickey movie starring Humphrey Bogart who plays as an escaped convict that tries to avoid the authorities by undergoing plastic surgery and hiding in the home of a young woman (Lauren Bacall). To prove that he is innocent, Bogart had to recuperate while in hiding and simultaneously build up his plans. Although the movie is shot completely from the subjective point of view of Bogart’s bandaged face, you might find sufficient reasons to stay and watch until the end of the movie based on the characters’ acting prowess. Directed by Delmer Daves (A Summer Place), Dark Passage tests your endurance as a viewer with a noticeable and apparent ploy. This film is considered to be at the end of a long Bogart-Bacall list of movies including To Have and Have Not, Key Largo, and The Big Sleep.
