Though he started his career as Broadway stage player and B-movie actor during the 1920s and 1930s, Bogart's later accomplishments have made him a worldwide icon.

Early life

Bogart was born in New York City, the oldest child of Belmont DeForest Bogart (b. The City of New York July 1867 in Watkins Glen, New York - d.

His father's ancestors were of Dutch, English, French, and Norwegian origin. The Dutch people ( Dutch:) are the dominant Ethnic group of the Netherlands. The English people (from the adjective in Englisc) are a Nation and Ethnic group native to England who predominantly speak English Legal residents and citizens To be French according to the first article of the Constitution is to be a citizen of France regardless of one's origin race or religion ( Norwegians See also History of Norway and Demography of Norway. ^[3] Bogart is a Dutch name meaning “orchard”. ^[4] His mother's were largely of English descent and to a lesser extent Welsh. The Welsh people ( Welsh: Cymro ("Welshman" Cymraes ("Welsh woman" Cymry ("Welshmen/women" Cymry ^[5] Bogart's father was a Presbyterian, while his mother was an Episcopalian. Presbyterianism is a family of Christian denominations within the Reformed branch of Protestant Western Christianity The Episcopal Church is the official name of the Province of the Anglican Communion in the United States. Bogart was raised in his mother's Episcopal church. ^[6]

Bogart's birthday has been a subject of controversy. It was long believed that his birthday on Christmas Day 1899, was a Warner Bros. fiction created to romanticize his background, and that he was really born on January 23, 1899, a date that appears in many references.

Childhood

Bogart's father, Belmont, was a successful surgeon, a heart and lung specialist. His mother, Maud Humphrey, was a very successful commercial illustrator, who received her art training in New York and France, including study with James McNeill Whistler, and who later became artistic director of the fashion magazine Delineator. She was also a militant suffragette. ^[8] She used a drawing of baby Humphrey in a well-known ad campaign for Mellins Baby Food. ^[9] In her prime, she made over $50,000 a year as an illustrator, then a vast sum, far more than her surgeon husband who made $20,000 per year from his excellent practice. ^[10] The Bogarts lived in a fashionable Upper West Side apartment, and had an elegant cottage on a fifty-five acre estate in upstate New York on Canandaigua Lake. The Upper West Side is a neighborhood of the borough of Manhattan in New York City that lies between Central Park and the Hudson River Canandaigua Lake is the fourth largest of the Finger Lakes, in the U As a youngster, Humphrey's gang of friends at the lake would put on theatricals. ^[11]

Humphrey was the oldest of three children, his two younger sisters were Frances and Catherine Elizabeth (Kay). ^[9] When Lauren Bacall introduced him to her large family, he said, "Christ, you've got more goddamn relatives than I've ever seen. " His parents were very formal, busy in their careers, and frequently fought—resulting in little emotion directed at the children, “I was brought up very unsentimentally but very straightforwardly. A kiss, in our family, was an event. Our mother and father didn’t glug over my two sisters and me”. ^[12] As a boy, Bogart was teased for his curls, his tidiness, the "cute" pictures his mother had him pose for, the Little Lord Fauntleroy clothes she dressed him in—and the name "Humphrey. Fauntleroy redirects here For other uses see Fauntleroy (disambiguation. "^[13] From his father, Bogart inherited a tendency for needling people, a fondness for fishing, a life-long love of sailing, and an attraction to strong-willed women. ^[14]

Education

Typical of New York society parents, the Bogarts sent their son to private schools. Humphrey began school at the Delancy school until fifth grade when he was enrolled in Trinity School. Trinity School is a private, preparatory, Co-educational Day school for grades K-12 located in New York City, USA ^[15] He was an indifferent, sullen student who showed no interest in after-school activities either. ^[16] Later he went to the prestigious preparatory school Phillips Academy, in Andover, Massachusetts, the oldest prep school in America, where he was admitted based on family connections. A university-preparatory school or college-preparatory school (usually abbreviated to preparatory school, college prep school, or prep school Phillips Academy (also known as Phillips Andover or PA or simply Andover) is a co-educational University preparatory school for boarding Andover is a town in Essex County, Massachusetts, United States. ^[17] They hoped he would go on to Yale, but in 1918, Bogart was expelled from Phillips Academy. ^[18]

The details of his expulsion are disputed: one story claims that he was expelled for throwing the headmaster (alternatively, a groundskeeper) into Rabbit Pond, a man-made lake on campus. Another cites smoking and drinking, combined with poor academic performance and possibly some intemperate comments to the staff. It has also been said that he was actually withdrawn from the school by his father for failing to improve his academics, as opposed to expulsion. In any case, his parents were deeply dismayed by the events and their failed plans for his future. ^[19]

Navy

In spring 1918, coming up with no other career options, Bogart followed his love for the sea and enlisted in the U.S. Navy. As he recalled later, “At eighteen war was great stuff. Paris! French girls! Hot damn!”^[20] Bogart is recorded as a model sailor who spent most of his months in the navy after the Armistice was signed, ferrying troops back from Europe. An armistice is a situation where the warring parties agree to stop fighting ^[21]

It was during his naval stint that Bogart may have gotten his trademark scar and developed his characteristic lisp, though the actual circumstances are hazy at best and somewhat contradictory. One account is that his lip was cut by a piece of shrapnel during a shelling of his ship, USS Leviathan, although some claim that Bogart didn’t make it to sea until after the Armistice was signed. Note "SS Leviathan" was also an early name for the 19th century ship launched as the SS Great Eastern. The armistice treaty between the Allies and Germany was signed in a railway carriage in Compiègne Forest on November 11, 1918 Another version, which Bogart's long time friend, author Nathaniel Benchley, claims is the truth, is that Bogart was injured while on assignment to take a naval prisoner to Portsmouth Naval Prison in New Hampshire. Nathaniel Benchley ( November 13, 1915 – December 14, 1981) was an American author Portsmouth Naval Prison is a former US Navy and Marine Prison in Kittery, Maine on Seavey's Island, the Portsmouth New Hampshire ( is a state in the New England region of the northeastern United States of America. Supposedly, while changing trains in Boston, the handcuffed prisoner asked Bogart for a cigarette and while Bogart looked for a match, the prisoner raised his hands, smashed Bogart across the mouth with his cuffs, cutting Bogart's lip, and fled. The prisoner was eventually taken to Portsmouth. An alternate explanation is that while in the process of uncuffing an inmate, Bogart was struck in the mouth when the inmate wielded one open, uncuffed bracelet while the other side was still on his wrist. ^[22]

Nevertheless, by the time Bogart was treated by a doctor, the scar had already formed. "Goddamn doctor", Bogart later told David Niven, "instead of stitching it up, he screwed it up. James David Graham Niven (1 March 1910 – 29 July 1983 was an English Academy Award -winning Actor probably best known for his role as the punctuality-obsessed " In fact, Niven says that when he asked Bogart about his scar he said it was caused by a childhood accident, which seems to contradict the above stories; Niven claims the stories that Bogie got the scar during wartime were made up by the studios to inject glamour. His post-service physical makes no mention of the lip scar even though it mentions many smaller scars, so the actual cause may have come later. ^[21]When actress Louise Brooks met Bogart in 1924, he had some scarred tissue on his upper lip, which Belmont Bogart may have partially repaired before Bogart went into films in 1930. Louise Brooks ( November 14, 1906 &ndash August 8, 1985) was an American Dancer, model, Showgirl ^[19] She believes his scar had nothing to do with his distinctive speech pattern, his “lip wound gave him no speech impediment, either before or after it was mended. . . Over the years, Bogey practiced all kinds of lip gymnastics, accompanied by nasal tones, snarls, lisps, and slurs. His painful wince, his leer, his fiendish grin were the most accomplished ever seen on film”. ^[23]

Early career in the theatre

Bogart returned home to find that the family fortunes had diminished considerably. Belmont was suffering from poor health (perhaps aggravated by morphine addiction), his medical practice was faltering, and he had lost much of the family's money on bad investments in timber. Medical uses Morphine can be used as an analgesic in hospital settings to relieve pain in Myocardial infarction pain in ^[24] During his naval days, Bogart's character and values developed independent of family influence, and he began to rebel somewhat from their values. He came to be a liberal who hated pretensions, phonies, and snobs, and at times he defied conventional behavior and authority, traits he displayed in life and in his movies. On the other hand, he retained their traits of good manners, articulateness, punctuality, modesty, and a dislike of being touched. ^[25]

After his naval service, Bogart took odd jobs, including shipper and then bond salesman. ^[26] He also joined the Naval Reserve. The United States Navy Reserve, until 2005 known as the United States Naval Reserve, is the reserve component of the United States Navy. More importantly, he resumed his friendship with boyhood mate Bill Brady, Jr. whose father had show business connections, and eventually Bogart got an office job working for William A. Brady Sr. William Aloysius Brady ( June 19, 1863 - January 6, 1950) was an American Theatre actor producer and sports promoter 's new company World Films. ^[27] Bogart got to try his hand at screen writing, directing, and production, but excelled at none of them. Screenwriters or scenarists are Scriptwriters who write the Screenplays from which Films and Television programs are made For a while, he was stage manager for Brady's daughter's play A Ruined Lady. Stage management is a sub-discipline of Stagecraft. Although a somewhat fluid line of work in essence the stage management team (which can consist of a production A few months later in 1921, Bogart made his stage debut in Drifting as a Japanese butler in another Alice Brady play, nervously speaking one line of dialogue. Alice Brady ( November 2, 1892 - October 28,) was an Academy Award -winning American actress who began her career in the Silent Several more appearances followed in her subsequent plays. ^[28] Bogart was hooked on acting. He liked the late hours that actors kept, and enjoyed the attention that an actor got on stage. He spent a lot of his free time in speakeasys and became a heavy drinker. A bar room brawl during this time might have been the actual cause of Bogart's lip damage, as this coincides better with the Louise Brooks account. Louise Brooks ( November 14, 1906 &ndash August 8, 1985) was an American Dancer, model, Showgirl ^[29] As he stated, “I was born to be indolent and this was the softest of rackets”. ^[26]

Bogart never took acting lessons, and had no formal training, but he was persistent and worked steadily at his craft. He appeared in at least seventeen Broadway productions between 1922 and 1935. ^[30] He played juveniles or romantic second-leads in drawing room comedies. He is said to have been the first actor to ask "Tennis, anyone?" on stage. ^[31] Critic Alexander Woollcott wrote of Bogart's early work that he "is what is usually and mercifully described as inadequate. Alexander Humphreys Woollcott ( January 19, 1887 &ndash January 23, 1943) was an American critic and commentator for The New Yorker "^[32] Some reviews were kinder. Heywood Broun reviewing Nerves wrote, “Humphrey Bogart gives the most effective performance…both dry and fresh, if that be possible”. Heywood Campbell Broun /bɹun/ ( December 7 1888 – December 18 1939) was an American Journalist. ^[33] Bogart loathed the trivial, effeminate parts he had to play early in his career, calling them "White Pants Willie" roles.

Early in his career, while playing double roles in the play Drifting at the Playhouse Theatre in 1922, Bogart met Helen Menken. Helen Menken ( December 12, 1901 – March 27, 1966) was an American actress born Helen Meinken to a German-French father Frederick They were married on May 20, 1926 at the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York City, divorced on November 18, 1927, and remained friends.

He met Mary when they appeared in the play Nerves that had a very brief run at the Comedy Theatre in September 1924.

After the stock market crash of 1929, stage production dropped off sharply, and many of the more photogenic actors headed for Hollywood. Bogart's earliest film role is with Helen Hayes in the 1928 two-reeler The Dancing Town, of which a complete copy has never been found. Helen Hayes ( October 10, 1900 – March 17, 1993) was a two-time Academy Award -winning American Actress, whose He also appeared with Joan Blondell in a Vitaphone short in 1930 which was re-discovered in 1963. Rose Joan Blondell, known as Joan Blondell, ( August 30, 1906 – December 25, 1979) was an Oscar -nominated American Vitaphone was a Sound film process used on features and nearly 2000 Short subjects produced by Warner Bros ^[35] Bogart then signed a contract with Fox Film Corporation for $750 a week. Spencer Tracy was a serious Broadway actor whom Bogart liked and admired, and they became good friends and drinking buddies. Spencer Tracy ( April 5, 1900 – June 10, 1967) was a two-time Academy Award -winning Actor of stage and It was Tracy, in 1930, who first called him "Bogie". (Spelled variously in many sources, Bogart himself spelled his nickname "Bogie". )^[36] Tracy and Bogart appeared in their only film together in John Ford's early sound film Up the River (1930), with both playing inmates. A sound film is a motion picture with synchronized sound, or sound technologically coupled to image as opposed to a Silent film. For the 1938 film see Up the River. Up the River ( 1930) is a comedy film about escaped convicts directed by John Ford It was Tracy's film debut. ^[37] Bogart then performed in The Bad Sister with Bette Davis in 1931, in a minor part. The Bad Sister is a 1931 American Drama film made by Universal Pictures, directed by Hobart Henley, produced by Carl Ruth Elizabeth "Bette" Davis (April 5 1908 – October 6 1989 was an American actress of Film, Television and Theatre. ^[38]

During 1930-1935 period, Bogart had hard times. He shuttled back and forth between Hollywood and the New York stage, suffering long periods without work. His parents were living separately and Belmont died in 1934 in debt, which Bogart eventually paid off. (Bogart inherited his father's gold ring which he always wore, even in his films. At his father's deathbed, Bogart finally told Belmont how much he loved him. )^[39] Bogart's second marriage was on the rocks, and he was less than happy with his acting career to date; he became depressed, irritable, and drank heavily. ^[40]

The Petrified Forest

In 1934, Bogart starred in the Broadway play Invitation to a Murder at the Theatre Masque, now the John Golden Theatre. A play, or stageplay, is a form of Literature written by a Playwright, almost always consisting of Dialogue between Fictional characters The John Golden Theatre is a legitimate Broadway theatre located at 252 West 45th Street ( George Abbott Way) in midtown- Manhattan. The producer Arthur Hopkins heard the play from off stage and sent for Bogart to play escaped killer Duke Mantee in Robert E. Sherwood's new play, The Petrified Forest. Robert Emmet Sherwood ( 4 April 1896 – 14 November[[ 955]] American Playwright, editor, and Screenwriter. This article is about the Film The Petrified Forest For the National Park in Arizona where the film is set see Petrified Forest National Park. ^[40]Hopkins recalled, “When I saw the actor I was somewhat taken aback, for he was the one I never much admired. He was an antiquated juvenile who spent most of his stage life in white pants swinging a tennis racquet. He seemed as far from a cold-blooded killer as one could get, but the voice (dry and tired) persisted, and the voice was Mantee's”. ^[41]

The Petrified Forest had 197 performances at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York in 1935. The Broadhurst Theatre is a legitimate Broadway theatre located at 235 West 44th Street in midtown Manhattan. ^[42] Bogart played escaped killer Duke Mantee opposite Leslie Howard who played the lead, a youthful romantic. Leslie Howard ( April 3, 1893 - June 1, 1943) was an English stage and Academy Award nominated Film Bogart was so convincing that audiences even gasped when he made his entrance, menacingly shuffling in, sporting a natural two-day beard, cropped hair, shabby clothes, and his “prison” pallor. Brooks Atkinson, critic for the New York Times, said, “a peach… a roaring Western melodrama… Humphrey Bogart does the best work of his career as a motorized gorilla”. Justin Brooks Atkinson ( November 28, 1894 &ndash January 14, 1984) was an American Theatre Critic. ^[43] At last, he was given a part that would let him project his inner turmoil. Even though Bogart's success, as he described, “marked my deliverance from the ranks of the sleek, sybaritic, stiff-shirted, swallow-tailed ‘smoothies’ to which I seemed condemned to life”, only later did it become apparent that he had actually broken through. He was still feeling insecure. ^[42]

Warner Bros. bought the screen rights to The Petrified Forest. The studio was famous for its gritty, urban, low-budget action pictures so the script seemed a perfect vehicle, especially when the public was presently entranced by real life criminals like John Dillinger and Dutch Schultz. John Herbert Dillinger (June 22 1903–July 22 1934 was a notorious Bank robber in mid-western America Dutch Schultz ( August 6, 1902 &ndash October 24, 1935) was a New York City -area gangster of the 1920s and 1930s ^[44] Bette Davis and Leslie Howard were signed up, and Howard, who held production rights, made it clear he wanted Bogart to star with him. The studio then tested several Hollywood veterans for the Duke Mantee role, and chose Edward G. Robinson, who had greater star appeal and was due to make a film to fulfill his expensive contract. Edward Goldenberg Robinson Sr (born Emanuel Goldenberg; Yiddish: עמנואל גאלדנבערג December 12 1893 &ndash January Bogart cabled news of this to Howard, who was in Scotland. Scotland ( Gaelic: Alba) is a Country in northwest Europethat occupies the northern third of the island of Great Britain. Leslie Howard cabled reply was, “Att: Jack Warner Insist Bogart Play Mantee No Bogart No Deal L. H. ”. When Warner Bros. saw that Howard would not budge, they gave in and cast Bogart. ^[45] Jack Warner, famous for butting heads with his stars, tried to get Bogart to adopt a stage name, but Bogart stubbornly refused. ^[46] Bogart never forgot Howard's favor, and in 1952 he named his only daughter, Leslie, after Howard, who had died in World War II. World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including Robert E. Sherwood remained a close friend of Bogart's.

Early film career

In 1936, the film version of The Petrified Forest came out. Bogart garnered excellent reviews. His performance was called “brilliant”, “compelling”, and “superb”. His movie portrait of the killer Mantee was even better than in the play, due to the tightened screenplay and the effective use of close-ups. Despite his success in an “A movie”, Bogart received only a tepid twenty-six week contract at $550 per week and soon was typecast as a gangster in a series of "B movie" crime dramas. For other meanings see Typecasting. Typecasting is the process by which a film TV or stage Actor is strongly identified with a specific A B movie is a motion picture made on a low or modest budget Originally the term was used for films intended for distribution as the less-publicized second half of a Double ^[47] Bogart was proud of his success as an actor, but the fact that it came from playing a gangster weighed on him. For other uses see Gangsta. A gangster is a criminal who is or at some point almost invariably becomes a member of a persistent violent He once said, "I can't get in a mild discussion without turning it into an argument. There must be something in my tone of voice, or this arrogant face—something that antagonizes everybody. Nobody likes me on sight. I suppose that's why I'm cast as the heavy. "

Bogart's roles were not only repetitive but physically demanding and draining (studios were not yet air-conditioned), and his regimented, tight-scheduled job at Warners was not exactly the “peachy” actor's life he had hoped for. The term air conditioning refers to the cooling and dehumidification of indoor air for Thermal comfort. ^[48] In spite of that, he was always professional and generally respected other actors. In those “B movie” years, Bogart started developing his lasting film persona — the wounded, stoical, cynical, charming, vulnerable, self-mocking loner with a core of honor.

Jack Warner, however, saw no reason for anyone to complain as long as the movies made money, and the actors got paid. This article is about Jack Warner the head of Warner Brothers Jack Warner's studio was nearly as tough as Bogart's screen persona. During the 1930s, it survived law suits, actor disputes, heavy losses, a stockholder revolt, and the defection of Darryl F. Zanuck to Twentieth Century-Fox. Darryl Francis Zanuck ( September 5, 1902 &ndash December 22, 1979) was an Academy Award -winning producer, Writer ^[49] Bogart's disputes with Warner Brothers over roles and money were similar to those the studio had with other less-than-obedient stars, including James Cagney, Errol Flynn, and Olivia de Havilland. James Francis Cagney Jr ( July 17, 1899 &ndash March 30, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American Film Errol Leslie Thomson Flynn ( June 20, 1909 &ndash October 14, 1959) was an Australian Film Actor, most Olivia Mary de Havilland (born July 1, 1916) is a two-time Academy Award -winning actress. ^[50]

The studio system, then in its heyday, largely restricted actors to one studio, with occasional loan-outs, and Warner Bros. had no interest in making Bogart a top star. Shooting on a new movie might begin days or only hours after shooting on the previous one was completed. Any actor who refused a role could be suspended without pay. Bogart didn't like the roles chosen for him, but he worked steadily: between 1936 and 1940, Bogart averaged a movie every two months, sometimes even working on two simultaneously, as movies were shot scene-by-scene and rarely in order of the entire script. Amenities at Warners were few compared to those for their fellow actors at MGM. Bogart thought that Warner wardrobe department was cheap, and often wore his own suits in his movies. In High Sierra, Bogart used his own pet dog called Zero to play his character's dog "Pard. High Sierra ( 1941) is an early Heist film and Film noir written by John Huston and W "

The leading men ahead of Bogart at Warner Bros. included not just such classic stars as James Cagney and Edward G. Robinson, but also actors far less well-known today, such as Victor McLaglen, George Raft and Paul Muni. James Francis Cagney Jr ( July 17, 1899 &ndash March 30, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American Film Edward Goldenberg Robinson Sr (born Emanuel Goldenberg; Yiddish: עמנואל גאלדנבערג December 12 1893 &ndash January Victor Andrew de Bier Everleigh McLaglen ( December 10, 1886 - November 7, 1959) was an Academy Award winning English George Raft ( 26 September 1895 – 24 November 1980) was an American Film Actor most closely identified Paul Muni ( September 22, 1895 – August 25, 1967) was an American Academy Award -winning and Tony Award -winning Most of the studio's better movie scripts went to these men, and Bogart had to take what was left. He made films like Racket Busters, San Quentin, and You Can't Get Away With Murder. San Quentin is a 1937 Warner Bros Drama film directed by Lloyd Bacon and starring Pat O'Brien, Humphrey Bogart and The only substantial leading role he got during this period was in Samuel Goldwyn's Dead End (1937), where he portrayed a gangster modeled after Baby Face Nelson. Samuel Goldwyn ( ca. July 1879 &ndash 31 January 1974) was an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award -winning producer Dead End is a 1937 Crime drama film It is an adaptation of the Sidney Kingsley 1935 Broadway play of the same name Lester Joseph Gillis (December 6 1908—November 27 1934 ("George" was a bank robber in the 1930s better known as Baby Face Nelson due to his youthful ^[51] He did play a variety of interesting supporting roles, such as Angels with Dirty Faces (1938) (in which he got shot by James Cagney). Angels with Dirty Faces is a 1938 Warner Brothers Gangster film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring James Cagney, James Francis Cagney Jr ( July 17, 1899 &ndash March 30, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American Film Bogart was gunned down on film repeatedly, by Cagney and Edward G. Robinson, among others. In Black Legion (1937), for a change, he plays a good man caught up and destroyed by a racist organization, a movie Graham Greene called “intelligent and exciting, if rather earnest”. Henry Graham Greene OM, CH (2 October 1904 &ndash 3 April 1991 was an English writer best known as a novelist but who also produced Short stories ^[52]

Bogart had been raised to believe that acting was beneath a gentleman, but by and large, he had enjoyed stage acting, which gave a performer time to develop a role. Acting in movies was more mechanical, and playing depraved gunmen in "B" pictures for Warner Bros. was not something to be mentioned in polite company.

In 1938, Warner Bros. put him in a "hillbilly musical" called Swing Your Lady as a wrestling promoter; he later apparently considered this his worst film performance. Hillbilly is a term referring to people who dwell in remote Rural, Mountainous areas of the United States, primarily southern Appalachia and ^[53] In 1939, Bogart played a mad scientist in The Return of Doctor X. The Return of Doctor X (also billed as The Return of Dr X) ( 1939) is a Horror film starring Wayne Morris, Rosemary He cracked: "If it'd been Jack Warner's blood…I wouldn't have minded so much. This article is about Jack Warner the head of Warner Brothers The trouble was they were drinking mine and I was making this stinking movie. "

Mary Philips, in her own sizzling stage hit A Touch of Brimstone (1935) refused to give up her Broadway career to come to Hollywood with Bogart. After the play closed, however, she went to Hollywood but insisted on continuing her career (she was still a bigger star than he was) and they decided to divorce in 1937. ^[54] On August 21, 1938, Bogart entered into a disastrous third marriage, with actress Mayo Methot, a lively, friendly woman when sober, but a paranoid when drunk. Events 1192 - Minamoto Yoritomo becomes Seii Tai Shōgun and the De facto ruler of Japan. Year 1938 ( MCMXXXVIII) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. Mayo Methot ( March 3, 1904 – June 9, 1951) also known as Mayo Methot Bogart, was an American Film and She was convinced that her husband was cheating on her. The more she and Bogart drifted apart, the more she drank, got furious and threw things at him: plants, crockery, anything close at hand. She even set the house on fire, stabbed him with a knife, and slashed her wrists on several occasions. Bogart for his part needled her mercilessly and seemed to enjoy confrontation. Sometimes he turned violent. The press accurately dubbed them "the Battling Bogarts". ^[55] "The Bogart-Methot marriage was the sequel to the Civil War", said their friend Julius Epstein. Causes of the war See also Origins of the American Civil War, Timeline of events leading to the American Civil War The coexistence of a slave-owning South Julius J Epstein (born August 22, 1909, New York City New York; died December 30, 2000, Los Angeles California) A wag observed that there was "madness in his Methot". During this time, Bogart bought a motor launch, which he named "Sluggy" after his nickname for his hot-tempered wife. Despite his proclamations that "I like a jealous wife", "we get on so well together (because) we don’t have illusions about each other", and "I wouldn't give you two cents for a dame without a temper", it became a highly destructive relationship. ^[56]

In California in the 1930s, Bogart bought a 55-foot sailing yacht, the "Santana", from actor Dick Powell. Richard Ewing "Dick" Powell ( November 14, 1904 – January 2, 1963) was an American Singer, Actor, The sea was his sanctuary^[57] and he loved to sail around Catalina Island. He was a serious sailor, respected by other sailors who had seen too many Hollywood actors and their boats. About 30 weekends a year, he went out on his boat. He once said: "An actor needs something to stabilize his personality, something to nail down what he really is, not what he is currently pretending to be. "

He had a lifelong disgust for the pretentious, fake or phony, as his son Stephen told Turner Classic Movies host Robert Osborne in 1999. Turner Classic Movies ( TCM) is a cable television channel featuring commercial -free classic movies mostly from the Turner Entertainment and Warner Robert Jolin Osborne (born May 3, 1932 in Colfax Washington) is an American actor and film historian best known as the host of the Turner Classic Sensitive yet caustic, and disgusted by the inferior movies he was churning out, Bogart cultivated the persona of a soured idealist, a man exiled from better things in New York, living by his wits, drinking too much, cursed to live out his life among second-rate people and projects.

Bogart rarely saw his own films and didn't attend the premieres. He didn't play the Hollywood gossip game or cozy up to the newspaper columnists. He didn’t engage in phony politeness and admiration of his peers nor in behind the scenes back-stabbing. He even protected his privacy with phony press releases about his private life to satisfy the curiosity of the press and the public. ^[58] When he thought an actor, director or a movie studio had done something shoddy, he spoke up about it and was willing to be quoted. He advised Robert Mitchum that the only way to stay alive in Hollywood was to be an “againster”. Robert Charles Durman Mitchum ( August 6, 1917 &ndash July 1, 1997) was an Academy Award nominated American film As a result, he was not the most popular of actors and some in the Hollywood community shunned him privately to avoid trouble with the studios. ^[59] But the Hollywood press, unaccustomed to candor, was delighted. Bogart once said, "All over Hollywood, they are continually advising me 'Oh, you mustn't say that. That will get you in a lot of trouble' when I remark that some picture or writer or director or producer is no good. I don't get it. If he isn't any good, why can't you say so? If more people would mention it, pretty soon it might start having some effect. "

Rise to stardom

High Sierra

High Sierra, a 1941 movie directed by Raoul Walsh, had a screenplay written by Bogart's friend and drinking partner, John Huston, adapted from the novel by W.R. Burnett (Little Caesar, etc. High Sierra ( 1941) is an early Heist film and Film noir written by John Huston and W Raoul Walsh (born March 11, 1887 in New York City, died December 31, 1980 in Simi Valley CA) was an American John Marcellus Huston ( August 5 1906 &ndash August 28 1987) was an American Film director and Actor. William Riley Burnett ( November 25, 1899 - April 25, 1982) often credited as W Little Caesar is a 1931 Crime film made during the Pre-Code era which tells the story of a man who works his way up the ranks of the mob ). ^[60] The film was a step forward for Bogart, and proved to be his last major film in which he played a gangster (his final gangster role was in The Big Shot in 1942). As "Mad Dog" Roy Earle, he still died at the end, but at least he got to kiss Ida Lupino (he was an uncomfortable kisser in movies) and play a character with some depth. Ida Lupino (4 February &ndash 3 August) was an English film actress, director, and a pioneer among women filmmakers Bogart worked well with Lupino, and her relationship with him was a close one, provoking jealousy from Bogart's wife Mayo. ^[61]

Many key shots of the movie were made on location in the Sierras. The Sierra Nevada ( Spanish for "Snowy Range" is a Mountain range located in the U In a climactic scene, Bogart's character slid 90 feet down a mountainside to his just reward. His stunt double, Buster Wiles, bounced a few times going down the mountain and wanted another take to do better. "Forget it", said Raoul Walsh. "It's good enough for the 25-cent customers. "^[62]

The film cemented a strong personal and professional connection between Bogart and Huston. Bogart admired and somewhat envied Huston for his skill as a writer. Though a poor student, Bogart was a lifelong reader. He could quote Plato, Pope, Ralph Waldo Emerson and over a thousand lines of Shakespeare. Biography Early life Birth and family Plato was born in Athens Greece Alexander Pope (21 May 1688 – 30 May 1744 is generally regarded as the greatest English Poet of the eighteenth century best known for his Satirical Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25 1803 &ndash April 27 1882 was an American essayist philosopher poet and leader of the Transcendentalist movement in the early 19th century William Shakespeare ( baptised He subscribed to the Harvard Law Review. The Harvard Law Review is a journal of legal scholarship published by an independent student group at Harvard Law School. ^[62]He admired writers, and some of his best friends were screenwriters, including Louis Bromfield, Nathaniel Benchley and Nunnally Johnson. Louis Bromfield ( December 27, 1896 &ndash March 18, 1956) was an American author and conservationist who gained international recognition Nathaniel Benchley ( November 13, 1915 – December 14, 1981) was an American author Nunnally Hunter Johnson ( December 5, 1897 - March 25, 1977) was an American filmmaker who wrote produced and directed films Bogart enjoyed intense, provocative conversation and stiff drinks, as did Huston. Both were rebellious and liked to play childish pranks. John Huston reported being easily bored during production, and admired Bogart (who also got bored easily off camera) not just for his acting talent but for his intense concentration on the set. ^[63]

The Maltese Falcon

Paul Muni and George Raft had both turned down Bogart's part in High Sierra. Paul Muni ( September 22, 1895 – August 25, 1967) was an American Academy Award -winning and Tony Award -winning George Raft ( 26 September 1895 – 24 November 1980) was an American Film Actor most closely identified Raft then turned down the male lead in John Huston's directorial debut The Maltese Falcon (1941), due to its being a cleaned up version of the pre-Production Code The Maltese Falcon (1931), his contract stipulating that he did not have to appear in remakes. The Maltese Falcon is a 1941 Warner Bros film written and directed by John Huston, based on the novel of the same name For the television broadcasting term please see Production code number. The Maltese Falcon is a 1931 Warner Bros Crime film based on the novel of the same name by Dashiell Hammett. The original novel, written by Dashiell Hammett, was first published in the pulp magazine Black Mask in 1929. Samuel Dashiell Hammett ( May 27, 1894 — January 10, 1961) was an American Author of Hardboiled detective It was also the basis for another movie version, Satan Met a Lady (1936). ^[64] The film was shot in only 34 days and right on budget. For this third version, Jack Warner or Hal Wallis wanted the title to be The Gent from Frisco, but it was changed back the morning after the preview. Hal B Wallis, CBE ( September 14, 1899 &ndash October 5, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American Aiding Bogart were excellent co-players: Sydney Greenstreet as the fat, urbane ringleader; Peter Lorre and Elisha Cook, Jr. as the stooges; and Mary Astor as the treacherous female foil. Sydney Hughes Greenstreet ( December 27 1879 &ndash January 18 1954) was an English Actor, best known for his work with Peter Lorre ( June 26 1904 &ndash March 23 1964) born László Löwenstein, was a Hungarian - Austrian Elisha Vanslyck Cook Jr ( December 26, 1903 was an American actor who made a career out of playing cowardly villains and neurotics earning him the nickname "Hollywood's Mary Astor ( May 3, 1906 – September 25, 1987) was an Academy Award -winning American Actress. ^[65]

Bogart grabbed the part and audiences saw him play a leading role with real complexity. His character, private detective Sam Spade, was still capable of duplicity and violence, but he was a leading man: handsome, smart, and fated to survive against a dedicated gang of criminals. Sam Spade is a Fictional character who is the Protagonist of Dashiell Hammett 's novel The Maltese Falcon Bogart's sharp timing was praised by the cast and director, as vital to the quick action and rapid fire dialogue. ^[62] The tricky plot, filmed in sequence with many meticulously prepared takes, centers on the pursuit of a fabled statue and the machinations employed in trying to acquire it.

Among Bogart's memorable lines: (cynically responding to Astor's calculated amorous advances) “You're good. You're very good!”; (to whining Lorre) “When you’re slapped you'll take it and like it”, and (to Cook's empty threats) “The cheaper the crook, the gaudier the patter. ” The ending speech Bogart made to Astor is famous: "I don't care who loves who. I won't play the sap for you! You killed Miles and you're going over for it. I hope they don't hang you by your sweet neck. If you're a good girl, you'll be out in 20 years and I'll be waiting for you. If they hang you, I'll always remember you. " And the last line, from Shakespeare, (when the police detective asks Bogart what the statue is, Bogart cryptically replies, “The stuff that dreams are made of”. William Shakespeare ( baptised ^[66] The film was a huge hit and for Huston, a triumphant directorial debut. Bogart was unusually happy with it, “it is practically a masterpiece. I don’t have many things I’m proud of… but that's one”. ^[67]

Casablanca

Bogart got his first real romantic lead in 1943's Casablanca, playing Rick Blaine, the hard-pressed ex-pat nightclub owner, hiding from the past and walking the fine line between Nazis, the French underground, the Vichy prefect, and his ex-girlfriend. Casablanca ( is an American Romantic drama film directed by Michael Curtiz, starring Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman and An expatriate (in abbreviated form expat) is a person temporarily or permanently residing in a country and culture other than that of the person's upbringing Nazism, which was a short name for National Socialism (Nationalsozialismus refers primarily to the Ideology and practices of the National Socialist German The French Resistance is the collective name used for the French Resistance movements which fought against the Nazi German Vichy France, or the Vichy regime are the common terms used to describe the government of France from July 1940 to August 1944 The movie was based on the unsuccessful play Everybody Comes to Rick's and the script was fashioned by three independent teams of screenwriters, with the Epstein brothers, identical twins Julius J. and Philip G, and Howard Koch providing much of it^[68] The film was directed by Michael Curtiz, produced by Hal Wallis, and playing key roles in the excellent cast were: Ingrid Bergman, Claude Rains, Sidney Greenstreet, Paul Henreid, Conrad Veidt, Peter Lorre, and Dooley Wilson. Julius J Epstein (born August 22, 1909, New York City New York; died December 30, 2000, Los Angeles California) Philip G Epstein ( August 22, 1909 – February 7, 1952) was an American screenwriter most known for his adaptation in partnership with his twin Howard Koch ( December 2, 1902 - August 17, 1995) was an American Screenwriter who was blacklisted by the Michael Curtiz ( December 24, 1886 - April 10, 1962) was an Academy Award -winning Hungarian-American Film director Hal B Wallis, CBE ( September 14, 1899 &ndash October 5, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American (ˈbærjman in Swedish but usually ˈbɝgmən in English (August 29 1915 &ndash August 29 1982 was a Swedish three-time Academy Award -winning and two-time Emmy William Claude Rains (10 November &ndash30 May) was an English award-winning Actor and Film star whose career spanned 47 years Sydney Hughes Greenstreet ( December 27 1879 &ndash January 18 1954) was an English Actor, best known for his work with Paul Georg Julius Hernried Freiherr von Wassel-Waldingau, (January 10 &ndashMarch 29) known professionally as Paul Henreid, was an Austrian actor and film director Conrad Veidt ( January 22 1893 &ndash April 3 1943) was a German Actor, well known for his roles in such films as Peter Lorre ( June 26 1904 &ndash March 23 1964) born László Löwenstein, was a Hungarian - Austrian Arthur "Dooley" Wilson ( April 3 1886 &ndash May 30 1953) was an African American Actor and Singer

In real life, Bogart himself played tournament chess, one level below master level and often played with crew members and cast off the set. Chess is a recreational and competitive Game played between two players. It was reportedly his idea that Rick Blaine be portrayed as a chess player, which also served as a metaphor for the sparring relationship of Bogart and Rains in the movie. Off camera, however, Paul Henreid proved to be the best player. ^[69]

The on-screen magic of Bogart and Bergman was the result of two actors doing their very best work, not any real-life sparks, though Bogart's perennially jealous wife assumed otherwise. Off the set, the co-stars hardly spoke during the filming, where normally she had a reputation for affairs with her leading men. ^[70] Because Bergman was taller than her leading man, Bogart had 3-inch blocks attached to his shoes in certain scenes. ^[70]She reportedly said later, "I kissed him but I never knew him. "^[71] Years later, after Bergman had taken up with Italian director Roberto Rossellini, and bore him a child, Bogart confronted her. Roberto Rossellini ( May 8 1906 – June 3 1977) was an Italian Film director. "You used to be a great star", he said. "What are you now?" "A happy woman", she replied.

Casablanca won the 1943 Academy Award for Best Picture. The Academy Award for Best Motion Picture is one of the Awards of Merit presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS to artists working Bogart was nominated for the Best Actor in a Leading Role, but lost out to Paul Lukas for his performance in Watch on the Rhine. Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role is one of the Academy Awards of Merit presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS to recognize Paul Lukas ( May 26, 1895 - August 15, 1971) was a Hungarian Academy Award and Golden Globe -winning Watch on the Rhine is a 1943 Drama film that was adapted by Dashiell Hammett and Lillian Hellman from Hellman's play Still, for Bogart, it was a huge triumph. The film vaulted him from fourth place to first in the studio's roster, finally exceeding James Cagney, and more than doubling his salary to over $460,000 per year by 1946, making him the highest paid actor in the world. James Francis Cagney Jr ( July 17, 1899 &ndash March 30, 1986) was an Academy Award -winning American Film ^[72]

The movie has become an all-time classic adventure-romance. Thoroughly studied by film critics and repeatedly enjoyed by millions of movie fans, it has gathered appeal over time. The film earned stellar reviews and made over $3. 5 million in 1943, an excellent result. ^[72] The movie's signature tune, As Time Goes By, effectively summarizes Bogart and Bergman's lost romance while Bogart's famous line “Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all over the world, she walks into mine” aptly distills the angst of his character. The final scenes at the airport are especially memorable, and famously written at the last moment. Bogart finally takes charge of the situation and tells Bergman, “You belong to Victor…If that plane leaves the ground and you’re not on it, you’ll regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon, and for the rest of your life…I’m not good at being noble, but it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of three little people don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world…Here's looking at you, kid”. ^[73] And lastly, after Rains helps Bergman escape, Bogart ends, “Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship”.

Among the many classic lines from the movie, the phrases “We’ll always have Paris”, “the usual suspects” and “I’m shocked; Shocked!” are still in popular use. Though deemed by some critics as implausible, sometimes corny and sentimental, often overly melodramatic, the movie's hodge-podge of moral dilemmas and patriotic motifs comes together most effectively. The British Film Institute has called it “the best film ever made”. The British Film Institute ( BFI) is a charitable organisation established by Royal Charter to encourage the development of the arts of film television ^[72] As Umberto Eco states, “Casablanca has succeeded in becoming a cult movie because it is not one movie. It is ‘the movies’. ^[74] The film's production and back story is well-documented, particularly in Aljean Harmetz's book ‘’Round Up the Usual Suspects’’. ^[68]

During World War II Bogart and wife Mayo Methot entertained troops as part of a USO show in Casablanca in October 1943. Mayo Methot ( March 3, 1904 – June 9, 1951) also known as Mayo Methot Bogart, was an American Film and "USO" redirects here for other uses see USO (disambiguation The United Service Organizations Inc Casablanca (in Standard Arabic: الدار البيضاء ad-Dār al-Bayḍāʼ; Moroccan Arabic: dar beïda الدار البيضا

Bogart and Bacall

Only Bogart's fourth marriage, to Lauren Bacall, was a happy one. They met while filming To Have and Have Not (1945), a very loose adaptation of the Ernest Hemingway novel. To Have and Have Not ( 1944) is a thriller romance war Adventure film directed by Howard Hawks and starring Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21 1899 — July 2 1961 was an American novelist short-story writer, and Journalist. The rights were first bought by Howard Hughes and sold to independent director Howard Hawks, and then purchased by Warner Bros. Howard Robard Hughes Jr (December 24 1905 – April 5 1976 was an American Aviator, Industrialist, Film producer / director, Philanthropist Howard Winchester Hawks ( May 30, 1896 &ndash December 26, 1977) was an American Film director, producer and William Faulkner, “out of print and broke”, was on the payroll, helping with the script. William Faulkner (born William Cuthbert Falkner) ( September 25, 1897 – July 6, 1962) was an American Author ^[75] The movie has many similarities with Casablanca — same enemies, same type of hero, even a piano player sidekick (this time Hoagy Carmichael). Hoagland Howard "Hoagy" Carmichael (November 22 1899 – December 27 1981 was an American Composer, Pianist, singer actor and bandleader

Bacall was 19 and Bogart was 45 when they met. His nickname for her was "Baby". Born Betty Perske, she took her mother's name (originally Weinstein-Bacal, then Bacal) when her parents divorced. ^[76] She had been a model since 16 and had acted in two failed plays. After her appearance on the cover of Harper's Bazaar (March 1943), Hawk's wife Nancy (nicknamed “Slim” and also a former model) urged Hawks to have her take a screen test. Harper's Bazaar is a well-known American Fashion Magazine, first published in 1867 He signed her up to a seven-year personal contract, brought her to Hollywood, gave her $100 a week, and began to manage her career. Hawks changed her name to Lauren Bacall. Nancy Hawks took Bacall under her wing. ^[77] She dressed Bacall stylishly, and guided the newcomer in matters of elegance, manners, and taste. At her husband's insistence Bacall's voice was trained to be lower, more masculine, and sexier, which resulted in one of the most distinctive voices in Hollywood. ^[78] In the movie, Bacall even takes on Nancy's nickname “Slim”.

When the newly glamorized (but still virginal) Bacall met Bogart, he found her instantly appealing and was drawn to her high cheekbones, green eyes, tawny blond hair, and lean body, as well as her poise and earthy, outspoken honesty. ^[79] Reportedly he said, “I just saw your test. We’ll have a lot of fun together”. ^[80] Their physical and emotional rapport was very strong from the start, and the age difference and different acting experience also created the additional dimension of a mentor-student relationship. Quite contrary to the Hollywood norm, it was his first affair with a leading lady. ^[81] Bogart was still miserably married and his early meetings with Bacall were discreet and brief, their separations bridged by ardent love letters. ^[82] The relationship made it much easier for the newcomer to make her first film, and Bogart did his best to put her at ease by joking with her and quietly coaching her. He let her steal scenes and even encouraged it. Hawks, for his part, also did his best to boost her performance and her role, and found Bogart easy to direct^[83]

In contrast to the Bergman role in Casablanca, Bacall's Slim is tough, independent, a bit bruised but straight thinking. She controls Bogart and gets the better of him in their sexy verbal exchanges, and usually the last word, “nobody calls me Slim. I’m too skinny to take it kindly. ” Her brassy, quiet aggressiveness puts Bogart's character back on his heels. In their famous first kissing scene, he impassively kisses her and she responds, "It's even better when you help” …You don’t have to say anything and you don’t have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe, just whistle. You know how to whistle, don’t you Steve? You just put your lips together and blow. " He whistles when she leaves the room. ^[84]

Hawks at some point began to disapprove of the pair. Hawks considered himself her protector and mentor, and Bogart was usurping that role. Hawks fell for Bacall as well (normally he avoided his starlets), and wanted her to feel the same way (even though he was married). Hawks told her that she meant nothing to Bogart and even threatened to send her to Monogram, the worst studio in Hollywood. Monogram Pictures Corporation was a Hollywood studio that produced and released films most on low budgets between 1931 and Bogart calmed her down and then went after Hawks. Jack Warner settled the dispute and filming resumed. ^[85] Out of jealousy, Hawks said of Bacall: "Bogie fell in love with the character she played, so she had to keep playing it the rest of her life. "^[86]

Just months after wrapping the film, Bogart and Bacall were re-united for their second movie together, the film noir masterpiece The Big Sleep, based on the novel by Raymond Chandler, again with script help from William Faulkner. Film noir is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize moral ambiguity and sexual motivation The Big Sleep ( 1946) directed by Howard Hawks, is the first film version of Raymond Chandler 's novel of the same name (1939 Raymond Thornton Chandler ( July 23, 1888 &ndash March 26, 1959) was an American Author of crime stories and novels Chandler thoroughly admired Bogart's performance: "Bogart can be tough without a gun. Also, he has a sense of humor that contains that grating undertone of contempt. "^[87]

Bogart was still torn between his new love and his sense of duty to his marriage. The mood on the set was tense, the actors both emotionally exhausted as Bogart tried to find a way out of his dilemma. Bogart and Bacall acted admirably, especially given the off-camera circumstances. Once again, the dialogue was full of sexual innuendos supplied by Hawks, and Bogart is convincing and enduring as private detective Philip Marlowe. In the end, the film was very successful, though some critics point out that the plot is confusing and overly complicated. ^[88]

By February 1945, divorce proceedings were initiated.

He loved the sea; it made her sick. Bogart's drinking sometimes inflamed tensions. Her conflicting roles of wife and actress also caused problems but she managed to balance both. As she matured, she became more assertive, dominant, and controlling but on the whole, Bogart gained from her energy and her expansive personality. She was usually flexible about his ways but when she was insistent, he often gave in to achieve peace. ^[91]

The panda case

In 1950, Bogart and his friend Bill Seeman arrived at the El Morocco Club in New York City after midnight. El Morocco (sometimes nicknamed Elmo or Elmer was a 20th century Manhattan Nightclub frequented by the rich and famous in the 1930s and 1950s Bogart and Seeman sent someone to buy two 22-pound stuffed pandas because, in a drunken state, they thought the pandas would be good company. ^[94] They propped up the bears in separate chairs, and began to drink.

Two young women at the club saw the stuffed animals, and one of the women picked up one of the pandas. She quickly ended up on the floor. The other woman tried to do the same and wound up in the same position. ^[94] Club spokesperson Leonard MacBain later stated, "No blows were exchanged, it was just one of those things. "^[94] The next morning Bogart was awakened by a city official who served him an assault summons. Knowing a media frenzy was imminent, he met the media still unshaved and in his pajamas. He told the press that he remembered grabbing the panda and "this screaming, squawking young lady. Nobody got hurt, I didn't sock anybody; if girls were falling on the floor, I guess it was because they couldn't stand up. "^[95] At the same time Time reported that the alleged victim had three marks from the alleged assault and "she explained that they were swelling and contusions. Time (trademarked in capitals as TIME) is a weekly American Newsmagazine, similar to Newsweek and "^[94]

That following Friday, Bogart went to court to face the charges. After the woman admitted to touching the panda, "Magistrate John R. Starkey ruled that Bogart had been defending his property, said he suspected the actor had been mousetrapped in the cause of club publicity, and dismissed the case. "^[96]

The Rat Pack and Romanoff's

Bogart was a founding member of the Rat Pack. The Rat Pack was a group of popular entertainers most active between the mid-1950s and mid-1960s During the spring of 1955, after a long party in Las Vegas with Frank Sinatra, Mike Romanoff and wife Gloria, Angie Dickinson and others, "Lauren Bacall surveyed the wreckage of the party" and declared, "You look like a god damn rat pack. Las Vegas ( Spanish: "The Meadows" is the most populous City in the state of Nevada, the seat of Clark County, and an internationally Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra (December 12 1915 &ndash May 14 1998 was an American singer and actor Michael Romanoff (born Hershel Geguzin was a Hollywood Restaurateur and Actor born 20 February 1890 in Lithuania. Angie Dickinson (born September 30, 1931) is a Golden Globe -winning American television and Film actress, perhaps "^[97]

Romanoff's in Beverly Hills was where the Rat Pack became "official". Michael Romanoff (born Hershel Geguzin was a Hollywood Restaurateur and Actor born 20 February 1890 in Lithuania. "Sinatra was named Pack Leader. Betty [Bacall] was named Den Mother, Bogie was Director of Public Relations, and Sid Luft was Acting Cage Manager. Sidney Luft ( November 2, 1915 – September 15, 2005) was an American show business figure best known as the third husband of iconic American "^[96] When asked by columnist Earl Wilson what the purpose of the group was, Bacall responded "to drink a lot of bourbon and stay up late. Earl Wilson ( May 3, 1907 in Rockford Ohio – January 16, 1987 in Yonkers New York) was an American Journalist "^[97]

Even so, the Rat Pack under Bogart's presidency was pretty civilized compared to what it became later. Bogart actually got away with telling Sinatra that he had an immature attitude towards women.

Later career

The enormous success of Casablanca redefined Bogart's career. For the first time, Bogart could be cast successfully as a tough, strong man and, at the same time, as a vulnerable love interest. But at Warners, nothing of the caliber of Casablanca followed that film. Despite Bogart's elevated standing, he did not yet have a contractual right of script refusal, so when he got weak scripts he dug in his heels, and locked horns again with the front office, as he did on the film Conflict (1943). ^[98] Though he submitted to Jack Warner on that picture, he successfully turned down God is My Co-Pilot (1945). ^[76] During part of 1943 and 1944, Bogart fulfilled his patriotic duty, with Mayo in tow, through USO and War Bond tours, with arduous travels to Italy and North Africa, including Casablanca. "USO" redirects here for other uses see USO (disambiguation The United Service Organizations Inc War bonds are a type of Savings bond used by combatant nations to help fund a war effort and as a Monetary policy for controlling Inflation from an Italy (Italia officially the Italian Republic, (Repubblica Italiana is located on the Italian Peninsula in Southern Europe, and on the two largest ^[72]

From 1945 to 1955, Bogart starred in many other films that reflected his talent as an actor. His two memorable movies with Lauren Bacall cemented his new image with the public. Riding high in 1947 with a new contract which provided some script refusal rights and the right to form his own separate production company, Bogart was handed an intriguing script and a chance to work with John Huston again. In The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, a stark tale of greed among three prospectors played out in the dusty back country of Mexico, Bogart is Dobbs, a rough character slowly consumed by avarice. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is a 1927 Novel by the mysterious German-English bilingual author B The United Mexican States ( or commonly Mexico (ˈmɛksɪkoʊ () is a federal constitutional Republic in North America. Absent any love story or a happy ending, it was deemed a risky project. ^[99] Walter Huston, John's father, is excellent as the eldest and wisest of the threesome. Walter Huston ( April 6 1884 &ndash April 7 1950) was an Academy Award -winning Canadian -born American actor Bogart later said of Walter Huston, “He's probably the only performer in Hollywood to whom I’d gladly lost a scene”. ^[100]

The film was grueling to make, and was done in summer for greater realism and atmosphere. ^[101] James Agee wrote, “Bogart does a wonderful job with this character…miles ahead of the very good work he has done before” John Huston won the Academy Award for direction and screenplay and his father won Best Supporting Actor, but the film had mediocre box office results. James Rufus Agee (November 27 1909 &ndash May 16 1955 was an American Novelist, Journalist, Poet Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role is one of the Academy Awards of Merit presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts Bogart complained, “An intelligent script, beautifully directed—something different—and the public turned a cold shoulder on it”. ^[102]

In addition to being offered better, more diverse roles, he started his own production company in 1948 called Santana Productions, named after his private sailing yacht. (Santana was also the name of the yacht featured in the 1948 film Key Largo). ^[103] Jack Warner was reportedly furious at this, even though it was in Bogart's contract, fearing that other stars would do the same and major studios would lose their power. This article is about Jack Warner the head of Warner Brothers The studios, however, were already under a lot of pressure, not just from free-lancing actors like Bogart, James Stewart, Henry Fonda and others (who also saved taxes as independents), but also from the eroding impact of television and from anti-trust laws which were breaking up theater chains. James Stewart may refer to Actors James Stewart (actor (1908&ndash1997 Hollywood movie actor and USAF Brigadier General Henry Jaynes Fonda ( May 16, 1905 – August 12, 1982) was an American Academy Award -winning Film and ^[104]

Under Bogart's Santana Productions, which released through Columbia Pictures, Bogart starred in:

• Knock on Any Door (1949)
• Tokyo Joe (1949)
• In a Lonely Place (1950)
• Sirocco (1951)
• Beat the Devil (1954)

While the majority of his films lost money at the box office (the main reason for Santana's end), at least two of them are still remembered today; In a Lonely Place (1950) is recognized as a masterpiece of film noir and is usually considered the finest of the films Santana produced. }} Columbia Pictures Industries Inc is an American Film production and distribution company Knock on Any Door ( 1949) is an American court-room trial Film noir directed by Nicholas Ray and starring Humphrey Bogart Tokyo Joe is a 1949 film directed by Stuart Heisler and starring Humphrey Bogart, Florence Marly and Sessue Hayakawa In a Lonely Place ( 1950) is a Film noir directed by Nicholas Ray, and starring Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Grahame, produced Sirocco ( 1951) is a American Film noir directed by Curtis Bernhardt and written by A Beat the Devil is a 1953 film directed by John Huston and starring Humphrey Bogart.

Gloria Grahame ( November 28, 1923 – October 5, 1981) was an Academy Award -winning American Film In the end, though his lover temporarily stabilizes him and he is cleared of the crime (in the novel Steele turns out to be a serial killer), Steele loses his lover because he can’t overcome his demons. ^[105] Many Bogart biographers and actress/writer Louise Brooks agree that the role of violent screenwriter Dixon Steele is the closest to Bogart's real self, and is considered among Bogart's best performances. Louise Brooks ( November 14, 1906 &ndash August 8, 1985) was an American Dancer, model, Showgirl ^[106] She wrote that the film “gave him a role that he could play with complexity, because the film character's pride in his art, his selfishness, drunkenness, lack of energy stabbed with lightning strokes of violence were shared by the real Bogart”. The character even mimics some of Bogart's personal habits, including twice ordering Bogart's favorite meal of ham and eggs. ^[107]

Beat the Devil (1954), his last film with his close friend and favorite director John Huston, also enjoys a cult following. Beat the Devil is a 1953 film directed by John Huston and starring Humphrey Bogart. John Marcellus Huston ( August 5 1906 &ndash August 28 1987) was an American Film director and Actor.

The African Queen

In 1951, Bogart starred in the movie The African Queen, with Katharine Hepburn, again directed by his friend John Huston. The year 1951 in film involved some significant events Events Sweden - May Britt is scouted by Italian The African Queen is a Drama film directed by John Huston and produced by Sam Spiegel (billed as "S Katharine Houghton Hepburn (May 12 1907 – June 29 2003 was an American actress of film television and stage The novel had been looked over and left undeveloped for fifteen years until producer Sam Spiegel and Huston bought the rights.

The Belgian Congo ( Dutch: Belgisch Kongo French: Congo Belge German: Belgisch Kongo was the formal title of present-day Democratic Republic Bogart was to get 30 percent of the profits and Hepburn 10 percent, plus a relatively small salary for both. The stars met up in London and announced the happy prospect of working together. London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom.

Pope ^[111] Later, the glamor would be gone and she would make herself useful as a cook, nurse, and clothes washer, for which Bogart praised her, “I don’t know what we’d have done without her. She Luxed my undies in darkest Africa”. ^[112] Just about everyone in the cast came down with dysentery except Bogart and John Huston, who subsisted on canned food and booze. Dysentery (formerly known as flux or the bloody flux) is an infection of the digestive system that results in severe Diarrhea containing mucus and blood Bogart explained: "All I ate was baked beans, canned asparagus and Scotch whisky. Asparagus officinalis is a flowering plant species in the genus Asparagus from which the Vegetable known as asparagus is obtained Scotch whisky is Whisky made in Scotland. In Britain the term whisky is usually taken to mean Scotch unless otherwise specified Whenever a fly bit Huston or me, it dropped dead.

The hippopotamus ( Hippopotamus amphibius) from the Greek ἱπποπόταμος ( hippopotamos, ιππος hippos meaning "horse" ^[115]

When Hepburn's proper spinster character scolds Bogart's Charlie Alnutt for his bad habits "Nature, Mr. Alnutt, is what we are put in this world to rise above. ", Bogart responds with his famous put down, "You crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!"^[116] As the movie progresses, though, the two opposites fall in love while overcoming a series of obstacles and dangers during which they adapt to each other's eccentricities and lower their respective shields. Hepburn effectively lets go of her character's starchy aloofness and takes on a glowing tenderness toward Bogart's character, who in turn treats her gallantly and protectively. In the end, she triumphantly goads and shames him into a rash and patriotic act, the torpedoing of a German war ship, which finally frees them from their river ordeal.

The African Queen was the first Technicolor film in which Bogart appeared. Technicolor is the trademark for a series of color film processes pioneered by Technicolor Motion Picture Corporation Remarkably, he appeared in relatively few color films during the rest of his career, which continued for another five years. (His other color films included The Caine Mutiny, The Barefoot Contessa, We're No Angels, and The Left Hand of God. The Caine Mutiny is a 1951 Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Herman Wouk.

The role of Charlie Alnutt won Bogart his only Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role in 1951. "The Oscar" redirects here for the film see The Oscar (film. Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role is one of the Academy Awards of Merit presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS to recognize Bogart considered his performance to be the best of his film career. ^[117] He had vowed to friends that if he won, his speech would break the convention of thanking everyone in sight. He advised Claire Trevor when she had been nominated for Key Largo to “just say you did all yourself and don’t thank anyone”. Claire Trevor ( March 8, 1910 - April 8, 2000) was an Academy Award -winning American actress Key Largo is a 1948 Crime film starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G But when Bogart won the Academy Award, which he truly coveted despite his well-advertised disdain for Hollywood, he said “It's a long way from the Belgian Congo to the stage of this theatre. It's nicer to be here. Thank you very much…No one does it alone. As in tennis, you need a good opponent or partner to bring out the best in you. John and Katie helped me to be where I am now”. Despite the thrilling win and the recognition, Bogart later commented, “The way to survive an Oscar is never to try to win another one. . . too many stars…win it and then figure they have to top themselves. . . they become afraid to take chances. The result: A lot of dull performances in dull pictures”. ^[118]

The House Un-American Activities Committee

Bogart organized a delegation to Washington, D.C., called the Committee for the First Amendment during the height of McCarthyism, against the House Un-American Activities Committee's harassment of Hollywood writers and actors. Washington DC ( formally the District of Columbia and commonly referred to as Washington, the District, or simply D The Committee for the First Amendment was an action group formed in September 1947 by actors in support of the Hollywood Ten during the hearings of the House Un-American McCarthyism is a term describing the intense anti-communist suspicion in the United States in a period that lasted roughly from the late 1940s to the late 1950s The House Committee on Un-American Activities ( HUAC or HCUA 1938–1975 was an investigative committee of the United States House of Representatives.

Final roles

Bogart dropped his asking price to get the role of Captain Queeg in Edward Dmytryk's The Caine Mutiny, then griped with some of his old bitterness about it. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is John Huston 's 1948 Feature film adaptation of B Edward Dmytryk ( September 4, 1908 &ndash July 1, 1999) was an American Film director who was amongst the Hollywood The Caine Mutiny is a Drama film set during World War II, directed by Edward Dmytryk and starring Humphrey Bogart, Jose Ferrer ^[120] For all his success, he was still his melancholy old self, grumbling and feuding with the studio, while his health was beginning to deteriorate.

Bogart gave a bravura performance as Captain Queeg, an unstable naval officer, in many ways an extension of the character he had played in The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, and The Big Sleep—the wary loner who trusts no one—but with none of the warmth or humor that made those characters so appealing. Like his portrayal of Fred C. Dobbs in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Bogart played a paranoid, self-pitying character whose small-mindedness eventually destroyed him. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is John Huston 's 1948 Feature film adaptation of B Three months before the film's release, Bogart as Queeg appeared on the cover of Time magazine, while on Broadway Henry Fonda was starring in the stage version (in a different role), both of which generated strong publicity for the film.

In Sabrina, Billy Wilder, unable to secure Cary Grant, chose Bogart for the role of the older, conservative brother who competes with his younger playboy sibling William Holden for the affection of the Cinderella-like Sabrina Audrey Hepburn. Sabrina is a 1954 film directed by Billy Wilder, adapted for the screen by Wilder Samuel A Billy Wilder ( June 22, 1906 – March 27, 2002) was an Austrian born Jewish - American Journalist William Holden ( April 17, 1918 &ndash November 12, 1981) was an Academy Award -winning American film Actor Audrey Hepburn ( &ndash) was an English/Dutch Academy Award - Emmy Award - Tony Award - and Grammy Award -winning film and stage actress Bogart was lukewarm about the part but agreed to it on a handshake with Wilder, without a finished script, and with the director's assurances to take good care of Bogart during the filming. ^[122] But Bogart got on poorly with his director and co-stars. He also complained about the script which was written on a last-minute, daily basis and that Wilder favored Hepburn and Holden on and off the set. The main problem was that Wilder was the opposite of his ideal director John Huston in both style and personality. Bogart told the press that Wilder was “overbearing” and “is the kind of Prussian German with a riding crop. He is the type of director I don’t like to work with…the picture is a crock of crap. I got sick and tired of who gets Sabrina”. ^[123] Wilder said, “We parted as enemies but finally made up”. Despite the acrimony, the film was successful. The New York Times said of Bogart, “he is incredibly adroit. . . the skill with which this old rock-ribbed actor blend the gags and such duplicities with a manly manner of melting is one of the incalculable joys of the show”. ^[124]

The Barefoot Contessa (dir. The Barefoot Contessa is a 1954 film about the life and loves of fictional Spanish sex symbol Maria Vargas Joseph Mankiewicz) in 1954 and filmed in Rome, Italy, gave Bogart one of his subtlest roles.

Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra (December 12 1915 &ndash May 14 1998 was an American singer and actor Bogart told her, “Half the world's female population would throw themselves at Frank's feet and here you are flouncing around with guys who wear capes and little ballerina slippers”. He was also annoyed by her inexperienced performance and later she did credit him for helping her. Bogart's performance was generally praised as the strongest part of the film. ^[125] During the filming, while Bacall was home, Bogart resumed his discreet affair with Verita Peterson, his long-time studio assistant and gal-pal who he took sailing and enjoyed drinking with. But when Bacall suddenly arrived on the scene discovering them together, Bacall took it quite well. She extracted an expensive shopping spree from him and the three traveled together after the shooting. ^[126]

Bogart could be generous with actors, particularly those who were black-listed, down on their luck, or were having personal problems. During the filming of The Left Hand of God (1955) he noticed his co-star Gene Tierney was having a hard time remembering her lines and was also behaving oddly. The Left Hand of God is a 1955 film drama made by 20th Century Fox. Gene Tierney ( November 19, 1920 – November 6, 1991) was an American film and stage actress. He coached Tierney, feeding her lines. He was familiar with mental illness (his sister had bouts of depression), and Bogart encouraged Tierney to seek treatment, which she did. He also stood behind Joan Bennett and insisted on her as his co-star in We're No Angels when a scandal made her persona non grata with Jack Warner. Joan Geraldine Bennett (February 27 &ndashDecember 7) was an Emmy -nominated American stage film and television actress We're No Angels is a 1955 Christmas Comedy picture starring Humphrey Bogart, Peter Ustinov, Aldo Ray, Joan Bennett Persona non grata ( Latin, Plural: personae non gratae, also abbreviated PNG literally meaning "an unwelcome person" is a term used ^[127]

Television work

Bogart rarely appeared on television. However, he and his wife appeared on Edward R. Murrow's Person to Person.

Death

By the mid-1950s, Bogart's health was failing. Once, after signing a long-term deal with Warner Bros. , Bogart predicted with glee that his teeth and hair would fall out before the contract ended. That sent a fuming Jack Warner to his lawyers. Bogart had formed a new production company and had plans for a new film Melville Goodwin, U. S. A. , in which he would play a general and Bacall a press magnate. His persistent cough and difficulty eating became too serious to ignore and he dropped the project. The film was re-named Top Secret Affair and made with Kirk Douglas and Susan Hayward.

Bogart, a heavy smoker, contracted cancer of the esophagus. Esophageal cancer is malignancy of the Esophagus.
