A hurricane swells outside, but it's nothing compared to the storm within the hotel at Key Largo. There, sadistic mobster Johnny Rocco holes up - and holds at gunpoint hotel owner James Temple, his widowed daughter-in-law Nora, and ex-GI Frank McCloud. This film was originally released on July 16, 1948, and stars Lauren Bacall, Lionel Barrymore, and Humphrey Bogart. Claire Trevor also stars and won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of alcoholic former nightclub singer Gaye Dawn.
