MALTESE FALCON "BBC Radio Broadcast"
Tom Wilkinson stars as Sam Spade in this BBC adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's Maltese Falcon. A coolly glittering gem of detective fiction that has haunted three generations of readers, from one of the greatest mystery writers of all time. A treasure worth killing for. Sam Spade, a slightly shopworn private eye with his own solitary code of ethics. A perfumed grafter named Joel Cairo, a fat man name Gutman, and Brigid O’Shaughnessy, a beautiful and treacherous woman whose loyalties shift at the drop of a dime. These are the ingredients of Dashiell Hammett's iconic, influential, and beloved The Maltese Falcon. When his partner is murdered in 1928 San Francisco, sleuth Sam Spade is drawn into a statuette riddle. BBC Four from December 1984.
