humphrey bogart

film actors today are ropey I feel.

about my all time favourite actor is humphrey bogart the lead actor in films like casablanca the treasure of the sierra madre the maltese falcon the african queen ect ect .

have you seen any bogart films

what do you think of him

do you have a favourite film

mine is either treasure of sierra madre or casablanca
I think casablanca or the african queen are his to best performances

[Peace-Phoenix]

I've never seen Casablanca, though feel I should really at some point. I have, however, seen the Simpsons lost alternative ending to it, with Hitler jumping out of the piano....

[jonny2mad]

its not the same and yes you should see the original

I never really got into the whole brat pack thing.. Cassablanca is excellent though, but I don't think Bogart is a patch on Peter O'Toole for films like Lawrence of Arabia (obviously), The Ruling Class (a MUST see! Hilarious and deeply sad), Murphys War (always loved that film!)

It's true though, your original point, not may greats about today are there?

[lithium]

There are a few film stars around who are I think in that Hollywood tradition, those you really respect and admire (and fancy) and would go to see a film just because they're in it. Some that come to mind are Scarlett Johansson, Jude Law, Kirsten Dunst, Jake Gyllenhaal. They've all been in some really quality films as well as being huge names.

Haven't seen "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" yet but it's on my list of things to watchhttp://www.hipforums.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif I believe it was remade as "Trespass" in 1992 with Ice Cubehttp://www.hipforums.com/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif
