Examining Humphrey Bogart's films starting with High Sierra, the movie that made him a star and led to his casting in Casablanca, this book details each film with synopsis, analysis, and background stories. It also provides an overview of Bogart's contribution to film, his work as a producer, and his relationship with such directors as John Huston and Nicholas Ray. Profusely illustrated, this book offers rarely seen film stills, as well as the U.S., English, and French versions of the films' movie poster art.
