If you loved Mientras la ciudad duerme, try El halcón maltés
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by John Huston, and they both carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mientras la ciudad duerme, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El halcón maltés is
Fog-soaked San Francisco, late spring. A cigarette cough. Sam Spade agrees to protect a wealthy man's daughter. Soon, lies and corpses multiply, all connected to a jewel-encrusted falcon. Huston's debut reset the detective-movie chessboard.
