The Maltese Falcon (Dir: Roy Del Ruth, 1931).

Movie number 5; the original version of Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon (Roy Del Ruth, 1931), which I guess makes it the grandaddy of film noir. Lacking both the charismatic presence of Humphrey Bogart and the sheer style of the 1941 version, it is still entertaining enough and being made pre Hays Code means it’s a little bit saucier than the remake!

Hey there! My name is Mike and I LOVE movies! All movies. Old movies, new movies, good movies bad movies. I also love talking and writing about movies.
My aim is to review every movie I watch this year. I began on 1st January on Instagram and have been slowly rolling it out across other platforms, including Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. Thanks to some positive feedback on social media, I have decided to launch Jingle Bones Movie Time as a fully fledged blog!
I would love people to engage in discussion so you are welcome to interact. Please keep it nice as I would like this to be a friendly space. I have never blogged before and am not especially tech savvy so this whole proccess may be slow going!
Apologies to my followers on social media as, for the time being at least, these posts will be familiar to you. I also intended to continue posting to the sites I already post on, so look me up on those too if you care to! I am known as jingle_bones_movie_time on Instagram and Jingle Bones Movie Time elsewhere.
Also, these early posts are kinda brief but please stick with them. They do improve!
Anyhow, if you enjoy movies, please join me on my viewing adventures. Thanks folks!
