Things to learn.. (possible spoilers?)

I'm surprised to see how few threads there are here. I just assumed that because it's a Bogart flick it must be wildly popular. I taped it as an afterthought off of the Fox Movie Channel and liked it a lot, especially the rather open ending of the film as opposed to the hollywood one I had been expecting.

Two things I learnt from watching Deadline USA:

1) If you want to kill a guy quietly then shooting him until he falls onto a working newspaper printing press surrounded by dozens of on-lookers and reporter probably isn't the way to go.

2) Thurston J Howell III got his start extorting washed up boxers for a news story.
