YMMV / High Sierra

• Adaptation Displacement: The film is more well known than the book.
• Director Displacement: John Huston co-wrote the script, but Raoul Walsh actually directed.
• Ethnic Scrappy: Algernon.
• Fair for Its Day: The character of Algernon is shockingly racist by modern standards, a black character who exists primarily for comic relief with exaggerated speech patterns and mannerisms. But, when you look past the externals, he's actually portrayed as both intelligent and competent.
