	DVD review of Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The (Special Edition) - DVDTOWN.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		"The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" would not acquire its classic status until many years after its initial release, thanks largely to television, which is where I came to it in the late fifties, more than a decade after it was made.
		Holt had played a series of B-movie Western heroes prior to "Treasure," and he would return to the B-movie fold when the film was over; but in the meantime he, too, is outstanding as the noble young man unwilling to compromise his values for the sake of money.
		In fact, his music for "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" is among the best ever written, and if you want to hear just how good it is, I recommend the 1999 Marco Polo CD of the complete, restored score (Marco Polo 8.225149), performed by William T. Stromberg and the Moscow Symphony Orchestra.

		And the music which uncannily mirrored their weary resolution, and which was one of the main reasons I would watch Treasure of the Sierra Madre over and over again through the next four decades, was by Max Steiner.
		Actually some of these tunes are no more than motifs, yet the impression they leave on the watcher's psyche is no less potent for their brevity.
		It is fascinating to contemplate that Max Steiner's The Treasure of the Sierra Madre received, at the time of the film's release and in critical retrospectives since, more criticism than perhaps any other of the composer's scores.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: The Treasure of the Sierra Madre: Special Edition
		The critical firmament is in near total agreement on John Huston's paean to the destructive power of greed; ergo, it is precisely in the face of such allegedly inarguable greatness that the determinedly independent thinker often expects to find a wild, streaking emperor.
		While critical enthusiasm has not dimmed in the decades since the film's release, there's still a sense that Sierra Madre is beloved more by the buffs than the casual fan.
		This is likely attributable to the quick deterioration of its ostensible protagonist, Fred C. Dobbs (Humphrey Bogart), a descent made all the more jarring by the intensity of Bogart's fearless performance, the uniqueness of which is the real reason the film sticks in memory.
