From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 6pm Saturday in NZ, 4pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies The Treasure of the Sierra Madre from 1948 and Angel and the Badman from 1947.
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is a 1948 American Western adventure drama film written and directed by John Huston.
It is an adaptation of B. Traven's 1927 novel of the same name, set in the 1920s.
In the movie, driven by their desperate economic plight, two young men, Fred C. Dobbs ( Humphrey Bogart) and Bob Curtin ( Tim Holt), join old-timer Howard ( Walter Huston, the director's father) in Mexico to prospect for gold.
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre was one of the first Hollywood productions to be shot on location outside the United States (in the state of Durango with street scenes in Tampico, Mexico), although many scenes were filmed back in the studio and elsewhere in the U.S.
In 1990, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Angel and the Badman is a 1947 American Western film written and directed by James Edward Grant and starring John Wayne, Gail Russell, Harry Carey and Bruce Cabot.
The film is about an injured gunfighter who is nursed back to health by a Quaker girl and her family whose way of life influences him and his violent ways.
Angel and the Badman was the first film Wayne produced as well as starred in, and was a departure for this genre at the time it was released.
Writer-director James Edward Grant was Wayne's frequent screenwriting collaborator.
In 1975, the film entered the public domain in the United States because the claimants did not renew its copyright registration in the 28th year after publication.
