Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

alexanderdavies-99382 I remember seeing the film "Conflict" on video back in the early 1990s when the film was part of a Humphrey Bogart collection. My brother warned me that "Conflict" was only a standard film and he was right. The plot and everything else about the film is only routine. It is one of those films where everyone concerned is just going through the motions. Bogart has a strong leading lady in Alexis Smith, she made some good films and was a very capable performer. Sidney Greenstreet offers more solid support in yet another Bogart vehicle and is cast as a decent character for a change. It helps that the film is only on for 83 minutes, otherwise the story would lose all momentum. There isn't much of a twist to the tale, in spite of what some people may think. Watchable but nothing special.

brekalo_rtf Speak as a Bogart fan must say that this one is for me in the better half of Bogart filmography and I saw many of his films. For me a perfect movie, and I do not understand why this movie has "only" this grade which is very good but for me it has a lot of material and a lot more, I even included it in the Top 250 with no problems. Film style irresistibly draws on films of Alfred Hithcock you believe that a man he did not know the director of the film after watching the same very likely say that this is a Hitchcock movie, I think this is enough said. The script is for a clean 10-house as well as top-notch acting. All in all my film is pure quality and I recommend it to fans of Bogart and those of Hitchcock films.

Patryk Czekaj Conflict is definitely a disturbing and horrifying psychological thriller. With it's maliciously unnerving mood and heavy, dismal cinematography, the film aspires to achieve an all-new level of anxiety.It's about a guilt-ridden man - Humphrey Bogart's arguably most sinister role ever - who gradually plunges deeper and deeper into state of a devastating mental illness. Hinting at a thorough psychological evaluation in the beginning, Conflict analyzes how a fearless and brutal man - convinced that he's just killed his innocent wife - is trapped in a vortex of clues, which might lead to a mightily shocking revelation. The more observant viewers might already be able to uncover the whole mystery in the first act, but for those who are in desperate need of a satisfying and suspenseful intrigue Conflict brings a genuinely captivating mystery.Sydney Greenstreet - with his usual charm, sophisticated mannerism, and most-cheerful laughter - plays the psychoanalyst and a friend to Mr. Bogart. The manner in which he exhibits his impeccable intelligence is the film's most-promising quality. And Bogart, with all his devilish attitude and increasing fear is as convincing (and as stylish and graceful) as he was in Casablanca or The Maltese Falcon.Conflict is a lesser-known film noir, but it's crucial to note that its mightily clever and disquieting premise - along with a bunch of twisted and deranged sequences - delivers a seriously thrilling melodrama that's not to be argued with.

robert-temple-1 This is an excellent film noir, featuring a very pert and pretty Alexis Smith as the object of a nasty Humphrey Bogart's lustful obsessions. Good old Sydney Greenstreet is as jolly and quietly scheming as ever. Regarding Smith, who is his sister-in-law, Bogart has 'gotta have her' but has not bothered to ask her first how she feels about that. Not waiting for such trivial information as what anyone else thinks, he hastens to commit 'the almost-perfect murder' of his wife so that he can be free to pursue his fantasy relationship with her sister. Greenstreet notices the giveaway-clue but with his poker face says nothing. This is all good vintage Hollywood stuff. The film was directed by German refugee Curtis Bernhardt, who fled the Gestapo and became one of Hollywood's many Germans, along with Fritz Lang and all the others. The next year, he directed the famous Bette Davis film A STOLEN LIFE. Robert Siodmak, another well-known émigré German director of noirs, wrote the original story for this one. Good expressionist angst.
