Casablanca (VHS)
Casablanca (DVD)
(1942) Bogart and Bergman. Heros and villians. Love story in an exotic locale. Reclamation of a man's soul. The movie equivalent of a Hemingway novel plus some great one-liners. They still study this screenplay in film schools because no one has EVER done it better.
The African Queen (VHS)
(1952) Why hasn't this classic been released on DVD? Co-starring Katherine Hepburn. Bogart won Best Actor under the direction of John Huston.
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (DVD)
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (VHS)
(1948) John Huston won an Oscar for directing this film, generally regarded as one of the Top 100 American movies ever. Bogart gives one of his best performances. If you haven't seen it, rent it and you may decide you want to own it.
The Humphrey Bogart Collection (The Big Sleep/The Maltese Falcon/Casablanca/Key Largo) (DVD)
Four great films, a gift that would be appreciated by any Bogart fan.
Dark Passage (DVD)
Dark Passage (VHS)
(1947) Bogey and Becall #3. Bogey's on the lam.
The Big Sleep (DVD)
The Big Sleep (VHS)
(1946) Bogey and Becall #2. William Faulkner (yes, the novelist) adapted the scrennplay from Raymond Chandler's best-selling book. Bogey makes a great Marlowe and Becall is equally good as the socialite needing help.
To Have and Hove Not (DVD)
To Have and Hove Not (VHS)
(1945) For the first time, Bogey and 19-year old Becall together. You can almost watch them falling in love in this film. Hemingway said this was his worst book. A "bad" Hemingway book is like a "bad" meal at a Wolfgang Puck restaurant. And it made a helluva film.
Key Largo (DVD)
Key Largo (VHS)
(1948) Bogey and Becall are held hostage by gangster Edward G. Robinson, who gives what may have been the performance of his career.
The Caine Mutiny (DVD)
The Caine Mutiny (VHS)
(1954) Good adaptation of a great book.
The Maltese Falcon (DVD)
The Maltese Falcon (VHS)
(1941) John Huston directed his first film, an American classic. Bogart plays detective Sam Spade. This movie made him a star - he wasn't playing the bad guy for a change.
