Equally at home in a trench coat and a white dinner jacket, Humphrey Bogart was named most popular American male star of all time by the American Film Institute. Professors Barry Sarchett (English) and Lisa B. Hughes (Classics) will screen The Maltese Falcon, the 1941 film that launched Bogey into stardom, then explore with us the nature of Hollywood stardom. What did Bogey have that made him a masculine ideal even into the counterculture of the Sixties and beyond? We’ll compare the novel to the film, and consider two more Bogart films in order to understand his persona and how it was created. March
18-19, 2006 The Schedule Saturday Sunday
