Fine Picture, Wonderful Ending
Firstly, it should be pointed out, that many of the reviews here, contain definite spoilers, with no warning. Shame on them.
Then, all of these movie review wannabes, who parrot words of Hopkins and Bogart being " miscast" are cute little homilies that serve no purpose, and are wholly incorrect.
These studios were adept at all matters of film production, and they knew what they were doing. This cry of "miscast", makes people not want to watch a great movie. Bogart is great as the bandit, and is cast correctly. For goodness sake, it's not really a Mexican role, and so what if it was? There were many people who associated with Mexicans then, or had mixed ancestry. Anyway, he did fine.
And Hopkins has one, not two love interests.
But the story is brilliant, acting superior, and a very happy and rewarding resolution.
Errol Flynn, is sheer genius here.
