A really different film and role for Humphrey Bogart, as he gets passed over for promotion to a foreigner and decides to join a thinly-veiled (pardon the pun) cloaked organization to gain some vengeance. His acting is getting better and you can tell he's just a couple of roles away from superstardom.
