This week A Cosmic Void dives into the film that's widely credited with starting the noir movement in film: The Maltese Falcon. John Huston's first turn at directing started a whole genre, hit the AFI's top 100, was one of the first movies preserved by the Library of Congress, and came up with an all timer for a macguffin. This episode breaks down the tangled web of lies woven intricately within the plot, talks about it's wide influence on movies, and shines a light on the greatest second to last line of a flick ever (hint, it's not "huh?"). Check this one out!
