Dark Passage is a 1947 film noir directed by Delmer Daves, starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. The story follows Vincent Parry (Bogart), a man who has been wrongly convicted of murdering his wife and sentenced to life in prison.
Vincent escapes from prison and makes his way to San Francisco, where he meets with Irene Jansen (Bacall), a woman who believes in his innocence and agrees to help him. She arranges for Vincent to undergo plastic surgery to change his appearance, so he can avoid capture.
After the surgery, Vincent hides out in Irene's apartment while they try to find evidence to clear his name. However, the police are closing in on Vincent, and he must avoid detection to stay alive. With the help of a few sympathetic characters along the way, Vincent and Irene finally uncover the truth about the murder and solve the mystery.

Overall, Dark Passage is a thrilling tale of suspense and romance, with stellar performances from its leading actors.
