Nerds haven't been this overjoyed since they put Monty Python on DVD.

The 2003 making of 'Treasure' and the 1989 John Huston Documentaries really put a great deal more value on an already phenomenal movie set. Personal favorite Bogart movie ever, if anyone has a desire to explore classic movies this is a perfect one to begin with.
