The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

After Fred C. Dobbs (Humphrey Bogart) cheats his partners and steals their gold, he is killed by banditos who want his burros and guns. They think the gold dust in the bags is sand, and scatter the gold into the desert. Howard (Walter Huston) and Curtin (Tim Holt) find one of the empty bags blowing in a windstorm and realize that the real treasure is learning that money can’t buy happiness.
