“We’re No Angels” (Paramount, 1955). Three escaped convicts (played by Humphrey Bogart, Peter Ustinov and Aldo Ray) hide out in a small coastal town and assist a family in unexpected ways. Even the convicts’ pet snake helps out. A fun little film and a rare comedy for Humphrey Bogart. Also stars Joan Bennett and Basil Rathbone. Written by Ranald MacDougall. Based by the play “La cuisine des anges” by Albert Husson. Directed by Michael Curtiz. “I’ll say one thing for crooks – they give you an honest day’s work.”
