Monsieur Spade 


Humphrey Bogart was cool before cool existed and Clive Owen channels his inner Bogart for his role as Dashell Hammett's Sam Spade in this crime thriller set in Post WWII France. Film Noir made bright in this story with a lot of moving parts. . My guess is Owen studied Bogart extensively for this role and he nails this self-deprecating, wise cracking detective to a tee. Produced by Barry Levinson so no reason not to see it. Two Thumbs up!
