Across the Pacific (1942)

Bogie as a spy! Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor and the inimitable Sydney Greenstreet, all from the Maltese Falcon cast. This is an espionage movie whose supposed locale had to be changed from the Pacific to the Panama Canal due to the bombing of Pearl Harbor. However, for some reason the title never got changed. A slam-bang finish with Bogie riding to the rescue, and that is always a formula for fun.
