‘Dark Passage’

Fugitive from San Quentin Humphrey struggles up the old wooden Filbert Steps after plastic surgery to hide his identity in the 1947 film ‘Dark Passage’. The men down below are yelling insults up to him including, “Had a hard night, buddy?” and “Having trouble with the little lady?” Oh, they were clever, weren’t they? These wooden steps extended down to the street into the 1980’s before they were replaced.
