	"One of his most perfectly realized efforts." -- Chicago Reader Posted Aug 1, 2007	The Silence (1963)	91%

	"John Huston has rarely been in better form than in this 1948 study of gold fever and worse obsessions among an unlikely trio of prospectors..." -- Chicago Reader Posted Jul 2, 2007	The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)	100%
