Humphrey Bogart-Superstar - Page 4

Sterling Hayden could have become an icon just like Bogart but he never took all the Hollywood star thing seriously. He was a man of life and an adventurer. You can also see him in Kubrick's "The Killing" and "Dr. Strangelove". His most notable film noir appearances were in "The Asphalt Jungle" and "Crime Wave". Apart from his dislike for Hollywood, he has been blacklisted because of his brief membership in the Communist Party which is another reason why he never had a "career". I'm glad he took another path because he obviously lived his dream.

While "Bogie" Is more well known for movies like: Casablanca, Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The Maltese Falcon, The African Queen and others I have him on DVD in a great World War 2 movie called "Sahara" where he is an American tank commander that is in the Libya campaign in 1943. It is an outstanding war movie with lots of good acting and good action shots.

Sahara is one of his finest. Also check out "In A Lonely Place" 1950. A tough noir/ love story. Bogart really gives one of his best performances where he plays a quick tempered Hollywood writer accused of murder. He should have been nominated for an Oscar; Gloria Grahame is also excellent as the woman who begins to doubt his innocence.
