I've also read that nearly all of that version of "The Maltese Falcon" was verbatim from Hammet's novel, and that the earlier & later films of it were more loosely adapted. The interesting thing everybody notes is that there's never been a movie adapt'n of "Red Harvest" by that name.

Yes, Dale. The Pinkerton agent, played by Mickey Rooney, had been chasing Evil Roy for years. He tapped the morse code out until his index finger was a stump.

@Milson I remember the dentist in the early 80's who, after his female patients were 'under' would help himself to a BJ from the unconsious patient in the chair.
