Episode description

Often listed as a Film Noir, The Petrified Forest (1936), is widely considered to be a precursor to Film Noir. The basic story is a lonely young waitress, a foreign drifter, and a few others are held hostages by a homicidal bank robber at a desert diner. Humphrey Bogart is amazing in the role of Duke Mantee, the gangster that made him a star.
