After several tough, 2-dimensional gangster roles Bogey is reborn as the epitome of Hollywood's noir antihero & gumshoe par excellence in an adaptation of D. Hammett's novel; costarring Mary Astor.

Arguably Bogart's grittiest role; a gold prospector's descent into madness and violence amid greed, betrayal and mistrust. A tour de force in an overall great movie, based on a novel by B. Traven.

One of Bogart's most tragic roles; that of neurotic Captain Queeg who is deposed by his officers during a WWII campaign. But a great cast overall, & some of the best court room scenes in film history.

Bogey goes up against Katharine Hepburn in this early 20th century tale of a down-and-out African riverboat captain taking on a spinster missionary as a passenger. Acting at its best from both stars!

Bogart as the ruthless, unpredictable leader of a trio of prison escapees who create a living nightmare when breaking into a suburban family home. A film that set the standard for many to come.

His last film role: The gritty, brutal tale of sportswriter-turned-boxing press agent Eddie Willis who gets a first-hand education in the exploitative nature of the boxing business (err, sport).

Bogart and George Raft as two brothers who earn their living as independent truckers. A stark and realistic depression-era tale; nothing for the weak-spirited ... but great performances throughout.

And now for something completely different: Bogey wooing Audrey Hepburn (in the title role) to keep her from disturbing his brother (William Holden)'s money merger marriage. Charming, offbeat fun!

Corruption, kidnapping and doomed romance in post-WWII Japan: and nobody could have played a man trying to resume his prewar life amid new secrets and shady dealings more convincingly than Bogart.

Also typical of his early "bad guy" roles: Bogart as a mob boss's tough right-hand man dukes it out with Edward G. Robinson as a cop allegedly gone bad after being fired. Again, as evil as they come!

Howard & Bogey again; in a comedy tossing a naive math whiz (Howard) into Hollywood's backstage pits for real life lessons taught by a cynical producer (Bogey) & a child star has-been (Joan Blondell).

Bogart as WWII tank commander of a crew separated from their forces in the African desert; surrounded by German troops. A thrilling race for time, water & gas; all about personal interaction. Great.
