Check 3 of your favorite Humphrey Bogart films.
(http://www.thecolumnists.com/stanley/stanley32art2.jpg)
My favorites are:
1) Treasure Of Sierra Madre
2) Casablanca
3) Caine Mutiny
With honorable mention to High Sierra, African Queen, Beat The Devil, and Maltese Falcon.
I went with The Big Sleep, Maltese Falcon, and Casablanca
My picks were:
THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE (1948)
CASABLANCA (1942)
THE MALTESE FALCON (1941)
I still haven't seen THE BIG SLEEP.
BEAT THE DEVIL is a very good film you can buy for $1 most anywhere.
THE BIG SLEEP
CASABLANCA
THE CAINE MUTINY
... Great post, Now, I'll be watching "The Big Sleep" tonight because of it
I would probably go with Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, and Treasure of the Sierra Madre, with The African Queen showing up real close behind and To Have and Have Not somewhere in there as well.
Casablanca, Big Sleep, Maltese Falcon, Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Er, can't limit it to 3. Even 4 is too few.
THEY DRIVE BY NIGHT was also a good one about truck drivers working extra hours.

I picked THE AFRICAN QUEEN, CASABLANCA and THE MALTESE FALCON but I like all of those above I've seen...
THEY DRIVE BY NIGHT would also be on my list.
also DEAD END(1937)
and the MALTESE FALCON.
the ROARING TWENTIES with Jimmy Cagney is a good one too!
Badges! We don't need no stinking badges!
It's all about the strawberries.
Yes, it's cruel to limit us to 3 --
I can't say that everything the man did was wonderful, but he DID do a plethora of wonderful roles.
Damn, Scott, you started this and you haven't seen "The Big Sleep" yet? Some of the best lines he ever said, bro!
"Yeah, he's the sort who'd beat my teeth out, then punch me in the mouth for mumbling . . ."

They are hard to find, but Bogart did some silent roles as well -- I've seen stills of him as a ghoul/zombie, but have never seen the picture.

The movie of him as a 'ghoul/zombie' would be the RETURN of DR. X(1939) in which he sported pancake makeup and a white streak in his hair,looking somewhat like Boris Karloff in the WALKING DEAD (another Warner Bros. film from about the same time. Incidently,it has nothing to do with DR.X, a Lioneel Atwill film,also by Warner,of 1933. Seems Warner Bros did not have a lot of creativity in the horror movie department,and shoulda stuck to gangster films...
What's the name of the film where Bogart isn't shown for half the film because he just escaped from prison and he had his face surgically altered? The camera angle is as if from his eyes during the first half.

I can name them Dennis. :smile: CAINE MUTINY, AFRICAN QUEEN, and THE TREASURE OF SIERRA MADRE
:smile: :smile: You're correct, Scott you have won either the matching set of shiny steel ball bearings,they're great stress relievers, or 1 pint of strawberries, if you can find the key, or any strawberries left in California after the freeze, or a cruise on Lake Victoria in a slow leaky boat, or a trip to the deserts of Mexico where you can prospect for gold and show the local citizens your own stinking badges :cheers: :cheers:
THE CAINE MUTINY is one of my favorite films, period. Glad to see it's doing well in the poll. :smile:
I'll take "1 pint of strawberries" :smile:.

Scott, e-mail me an address to ship the strawberries to and I will be happy to ship them or a prize of equal or maybe greater value to you. :cheers: :cheers:

1) Treasure Of Sierra Madre
2) The African Queen
3) Maltese Falcon
These just barely beat Casablanca. My tastes lean more towards adventure, & Casablanca had less adventure than these movies, going by memory.
