"I’m not good-looking. I used to be, but not anymore. Not like Robert Taylor. What I have got is I have character in my face. It’s taken an awful lot of late nights and drinking to put it there. When I go to work in a picture, I say, ‘Don’t take the lines out of my face. Leave them there."
- Humphrey Bogart
He is pretty good looking. Not 10/10 but above average. Just like almost all male actors he in part owes it to genetic luck
LEGENDARY
He was still pretty hot for a middle age guy.
He wasn't bald (something most of us can't say at age 40)
He still had a lean, attractive physique
And those eyes...someone had to get Bogey a mirror.
@@lascatnero1418 Actually, he was balding and wore a toupee.
It's cool that Bogart was honest with himself about that, and apparently comfortable in his skin. I suspect that the studio expected him to wear the toupee, since the public probably expected him to have hair. Ditto for John Wayne, and plenty of others too, no doubt.
You know how cool Humphrey Bogart is... his name is Humphrey, yet he’s still cool. Now that’s an achievement
I think his name is awesome. Very unique and regal
That’s Humphreyist
@UsirRaMaroon The word comes from his name!
Bogey doesn't ring that much better but still cool.
NO BRAD PITT THATS A COOL NAME, KOBE BRYANT THATS A COOL NAME LEARN YOUR SCHOL BOY.
"What did you do last night?
- That's so long ago, I don't remember
- What are you doing tonight?
- I never plan that far ahead."
Which movie is this quote from. Most of them I’ve seen so long ago I barely recall the plots much less famous dialogue
@@just1desi _Casablanca_
From anyone else those lines would probably come off as hokey or try-hard.
Love it! I just mangled that quote in response to another comment. It's one of my favourite exchanges in the film - although the entire dang thing is just about perfect for every moment it's on, so having favourite bits feels a little absurd..
@@TheSufferBrothers2 : Almost every line in The Big Sleep, is a priceless gem. Written by the great Raymond Chandler. That, and the Maltese Falcon are the ones to watch for the quotable, memorable and genuine laugh out loud moments, that make you wish you could be that sharp, that often. 😉
"The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind."
*~ Humphrey Bogart*
Good quote.
@Pranav Patel Have a few drinks. You'll get it at once.
@Pranav Patel well. It is a metaphor after all. You shouldn't read it too literally, I'd say. I understand it as the world being full of chaos and madness and a drink could maybe make it a bit clearer, make it calm down just for you
Gotta love that aspect ratio
I take that quote to mean that our individual realities are never in synch, leading to misunderstandings and unnecessary conflict. If you've ever been sober and tried to jump into a conversation w someone who's already drunk, the quote would be immediately understandable I think
If there was a NerdWriter bingo, "Eyes" would be the free space.
Damn
Savage
Imagine a parallel universe where bogart plays albert camus
OH yeah, they look really similar.
Imagine a parallel universe where Albert Camus plays Bogart
Yo, I was thinking the same thing!
wow
He could also play Mersault for an adaptation of The Stranger, by Camus.
Great video. Bogart delivered my favourite line in cinema in Casablanca:
Ugarte: "You despise me don't you"
Rick: "If I gave you any thought I probably would."
I've been trying to work that into my life ever since I saw it.
The dialogue in that movie is priceless.
"Where were you last night?"
"That's too long ago to remember"
"Will I see you tonight?"
"That's too far ahead to plan"
Most people aren't thinking from your perspective, they're thinking from their own, it's a pretty hackneyed setup.
@@JohnGottschalk - That's what's cool about subjective perspective. If you enjoy something, you're not wrong. Same if you don't.
@@TheSufferBrothers2 i was replying to the original comment, not to yours
it's a pretty sick burn.
List of movies appearing in the video:
- The Return of Doctor X, 1939
- High Sierra, 1941
- The Maltese Falcon, 1941
- Casablanca, 1942
- To Have and Have Not, 1944
- The Big Sleep, 1946
- The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, 1948
- In a Lonely Place, 1950
- The African Queen, 1954
I think The Roaring Twenties might have been in here too but I don’t care to watch it again
Thank you so much!
Cheers man
Which one should I watch first?
@@samrat447 The Maltese Falcon
He was an inspiration to the average guy, who was neither tall or good looking, telling them maybe they could win for once, by force of will and integrity. That's a potent idea.
It's funny how the current generation is trying to undermine Bogart, when the fact is he actually exemplifies in his many of his characters what a well-rounded man should be flaws and all, since no person is perfect.
I'm not gay but he was a pretty good looking and charismatic actor
I’ve seen most Bogart movies. Love him. He’s the definition of screen presence and charisma. Scrawny, world weary looking and usually wrinkled. Yet so engaging and charming you still can’t look away and somehow find him very manly.
Man he could have played Silent Cal.
His facility with dialogue is one of the things I admire so much about him. The way he delivers Raymond Chandler’s witty, clever quips and back and forth patter with other characters in The Big Sleep, genuinely leaves me breathless. His sheer skill with timing and delivery was like that of a skilled surgeon, who could juggle and play the piano whilst removing a patient’s appendix. Just jaw droppingly talented. One of the few from that era who genuinely makes me laugh out loud, feel his pain, share his anxieties or compassion and love, all in the space of one and a half hours of sheer movie gold. The Big Sleep and the Maltese Falcon, (with Dashiell Hammett’s words in the latter) are the ones to watch, if you want to see Bogey at the height of his powers, handling dialogue like a wizard of wordage. Just dazzling. ✌️
@@ashroskell Very well said ! I agree with everyone of your observations. He was indeed just jaw droppingly talented. I never get tired of watching his movies, and his charisma and intelligence are outstanding. I can't think of a modern film actor with his talents and power to impress.
Lol when I saw the title I answered "his eyes" right away then laughed at myself
/r/moviescirclejerk is ringing
Big, blue...
-Elijah Wood's Prank interview
Bogart is one of those legendary actors who can show so much depth of emotion simply with his facial expressions. There are many who can, but his eyes...they're absolutely captivating.
Right? How many actors can make their eyes pulse with light at exactly the right moment (before photoshop?) ? And he says more with a draw on a cigarette than most actors can say with scripted dialogue…they don’t make ‘em like that anymore….
Right? How many actors can make their eyes pulse with light at exactly the right moment (before photoshop?) ? And he says more with a draw on a cigarette than most actors can say with scripted dialogue…they don’t make ‘em like that anymore….
@@LilyAmongThorns They certainly don't make 'em like that anymore !!
The way he adjusts his hat brim is so iconic.
I really like this format of diving into an actor’s legacy and examining why they reached the height they did. I look forward to seeing more actors dissected in this manner.
It's a common misconception he didn't have range. Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Caine Mutiny, The Desperate Hours, Dark Passage, The Roaring Twenties, Sahara, In a Lonely Place and African Queen are all very different performances from the usual wise cracking/grey characters he potrayed. He had far more range than most of his contemporaries as well as modern actors who are considered great. Unfortunately at the time and even now people incorrectly assume he had little range based on 3 or 4 performances rather than looking at his filmography as a whole.
Great analysis of his weathered naturalism and how being 'typecast' as a specific character isn't always a bad thing. He's a specialist as opposed to a generalist.
Few actors in history have had that captivating presence on the big screen like Humphrey Bogart. You can't teach that.
I picture Bogart as John McClane in Die Hard. Laying in the air ducts saying "Come out to the coast. We'll get together, have a few laughs."
How did Humphrey Bogart become a legend?
Well, by saying “Here’s looking at you, kid.”
*Insert UNO flashbacks*
Haha
TechnicalHydra that is a comment I did not expect but am glad to see. Highest rated comedy movie!
I would add manage to get a broad like Bacall! They certainly broke the mold with those two
can someone explain this to me? English isn't my first language. Why does he says "here's" and not "look at me kid"?
This comment seriously calls for a Marlon Brando acting analysis.
There have been many videos on Brando acting analysis....There should be one for Sir Laurence Olivier...who is right up there with Brando in terms of acting prowess..
@@vb2388 There isn't any good one of Brando's. But, yeah, Sir Olivier is grossly underrated.
Thanks. The documentary 'Listen To Me Marlon' is amazing though, but a proper video essay would be amazing.
Brando acting?
Kuls freakin love that documentary...underrated as hell..
It really grinds my gears that RUclips does not acknowledge channels like nerdwriter anymore. It’s so much about the - mostly bad - quantity that only people subscribed to certain channels can see the quality made on this platform
I guess I haven't been paying much attention, but there are a lot of quality youtubers out there. It is just that I search for them under topics that I am interested in... now most of my recommended videos are in my vein of interests. I feel you though, sometimes the dumbest stuff shows up in my recommended. Nerdwriter can be a hard sell though for the algorithm though, because he is a bit of an infrequent and inconsistent poster these days. It is the first channel I ever subscribed to, but it is harder for youtube to promote a channel that the viewers will have to be patient for.
I feel earlier the recommended section was mostly top subscribed channels, now it's more personal to what you watch with an occasional top subscribed channel sprinkled in or one of those MSM paid promotion forced in.
If I am honest he took quite a hit off followers due to that SNES music vid, plenty of inaccuracies and half researched stuff in that one.
It had good points but , with stuff such as this one are what HE KNOWS what to do and talk about
As some comedians and writes advise you: "Write about what you know"
He definitely needed a lot more work to do with that SNES Vid from guys that DO know about that, But with this one, it shows that he needs that not
811414182梦见 if you have similar channels to share please do. I am looking for more channels like nerdwriter

I'll never forget the day I saw The African Queen for the first time. The scene where the boat gets stuck and Bogie just looks at Katherine Hepburn without crying or making some hammy speech before deliberately climbing back into the water, knowing full well he'll be crawling with leeches when he comes back out, floored me. And my dad, who was sitting behind me, said, "That's the meaning of life - in order to get to where you need to go, ya gotta be willing to wade through the river with all those blood-sucking leeches." Bogie taught me the meaning of life with a look. No other actor has ever come close to having that effect on me. He's been my number one favorite ever since.
So many modern viewers hate Bogie and complain that he was "flat," "wooden," "phoned in" and so on, and they credit Brando for revolutionizing acting for the better. I strongly disagree. World-renowned acting coach Sanford Meisner defined acting as "living truthfully in imaginary circumstances." If that's true, then Bogie was the most BRUTALLY truthful actor I've ever seen. He made every change of expression and vocal inflection count. Offhand, the only modern actors I can think of who even come close to his level of subtlety are people like Russel Crowe, Daniel Craig, Michael Keaton, Jennifer Lawrence, or Emma Watson and lo and behold, they too are similarly accused of under-acting by people who think Brando's highly emotional and expressive style is the be-all-end-all of acting.
My number one favorite actor and African Queen my all-time favorite movie.
I enjoyed your comment.
great comment
Hey man, I just want to say you’re one of my favorite creators on this platform. You always produce such quality content that dazzles, educates, and raises the bar every time. You inspire curiosity and that’s something I will support for a long time.
I agree
Well said
Happy Birthday Mr. Bogart! He played a character so deep in the movie, the spectators get involve so much that their eyes are glue to the screen in a " do not disturb manner". He will live forever as a legend, a tough talented superstar. RIP
bogart, made me fall in love with film noir, to this day I'm still hoping for new movies to have that classic film noir mood, the last I saw was Michael Shannon in The Missing Person
You're so right about his type: the hard exterior covering a soft inside. One movie that comes to mind that wasn't mentioned here is Billy Wilder's Sabrina (1954). Folks often say that he was miscast in a role that should have gone to Cary Grant, but those sad, world-weary, and tired eyes of Bogart really add gravity to the otherwise frothy romantic comedy, and I think the redemption in the end for his character holds so much more weight than if Grant had played it. Audrey Hepburn's character is "always reaching for the moon" at a lovely, idealized fantasy, while Bogart is analytical, pessimistic, and perpetually at ground-level. Their coming together at the end creates an unexpected yet beautiful balance between heaven and earth.
I recently watched that movie for the first time and there was this scene where they were in the car. I don’t remember what he was saying (I wanna say he was asking her how to say “I wish I were my brother” in French but that might be a different scene) but whatever it was, she said it was nonsense and there was this unmistakable deep sadness in his eyes that made me want to cry.
I didn't really discover Bogey until well into my 40's. You nailed the key to his legend. That face and those eyes and how he could bring out every feeling so accurately. Easily my favorite actor of all time.
"He was a real man"
Katharine Hepburn
I was reading Lauren Bacall's memoir, marvelling at how they fell in love. And I remembered how I watched this video way before.
He lived a good life, despite everything. And gave a lot. Like Lauren Bacall said, his legacy onscreen is the biggest monument anyone could ever mount for him.
Got heavy into film noir about 10 yrs ago...by far now my fav genre...Bogie and Mitchum are my 2 fav
Bogart to Nazis: “Are my eyes really brown?” This line from Casablanca always cracked me up.
I LOVE how you use the true correct export aspect ratio for the video, this would, for example have no black bars at all in a 4:3 screen. You just use the ratio that better fits the content.
I was just about to comment the same thing. :)
Glad to see I'm not the only one to notice and love it!
@@maldivirdragonwitch It struck me almost immediately, and it really stands out because of how uncommon it is nowadays. Most other youtubers would tailor the editing to fit the clips into a more traditional 16:9 frame or some other smartphone-specific aspect ratio. I appreciate his respect for the medium.
Please make a video on one of Tarkovsky’s films
Yes!! Mirror or Stalker especially..
PLEASE @nerdwriter1
Every Frame a Painting wanted to make one a long ways back, but I think copyright was an issue or something. God I loved that channel.
The Cinema Cartography channel made a video called 'Andrei Tarkovsky - Poetic Harmony' that IMO would absolutely satisfy any need you might have for a deeply in-depth analysis of Tarkovsky's films.
Don't think I've ever clicked on a video of yours so fast. I saw 'Humphrey Bogart' and that was it. He got me hooked on classic films when I was 14. After Casablanca, I wanted to watch more of his work and others as well. Almost two decades later and God knows how many films, Bogart is still in a league of his own. Thanks for the great video!
Thank you ! Thank you! Current generation have no idea who this man was and because of this maybe few of them will seek out the infinite treasures of Bogie. For a man with very ordinary features, short height (he had to stand on boxes to romance Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca) and a prominent lisp not only to survive in the old glamorous days of Hollywood but to be placed first in the AFI legends list is nothing short of astounding. I love even the lesser known works of Bogart like Sabrina, Desperate Hours and Caine Mutiny. There will never be anyone like him again. He had, how to say it, stuff that legends are made of!
I think one of the biggest lessons you can learn from Bogart is take of every opportunity you get. The roles others turned down were the ones that lead him to Casablanca. You never know which door will be THE door.
How could anyone not love Bogart? In addition to the 9 films mentioned here, there could have been several more: Key Largo, Dark Passage, The Caine Mutiny, Barefoot Contessa, etc. He's wonderful in virtually everything
Rewatched the first half of Key Largo the other day. I'm gonna finish it once I have the time. But seeing him, especially alongside Lionel Barrymore and Edward G Robinson, reminded me of just how legendary his performances really are.
In reading Edward G Robinson's autobiography, I loved him telling a story about how they would joke about Bogey finally getting to kill Eddie in that film, after the countless times Robinson had killed Bogart in earlier gangster films.
This is a FANTASTIC video essay. I always knew about Bogart when my native country bought only 4 American stations and TCM was one of them. Only really "discovered" him in my late 30s with Casablanca, African Queen (and re-watching Falcon & Sleep). Dude was a legend. Seemed to dominate the entire screen in any given scene.
It’s absurd to me that Bogey was never even nominated for an Oscar for his performances in both The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre and In A Lonely Place. Absolutely stellar, top shelf acting by him in each.
damn, that scene at 5:25 was intense.
At least I've watched Casablanca..
Watch the African Queen, you won't regret it!
@@dbar22 the stuff that dreams are made of.
Yeah, the Maltese Falcon still holds up surprisingly well today. Personally, I prefer it over The Big Sleep.
Bogart looks a lot like Albert Camus.
Hahaha. Well, the persona he lent to his characters certainly became the cinematic archetype of an individual stricken by existential crises (coming out of the 30s and 40s), and went on to greatly influence the French New Wave. So, not far off with that Camus comparison. :P
Actually, Camus liked to dress and comb his hair like a hard-boiled detective. It was actually Camus who dressed like Bogart.
This. Exactly, that was my initial thought as well.
Next: _How Nerdwriter1 Became a Legend_
I love how he just makes videos on things he's honestly interested in, whether they're trending or not. Like one week it might be a beautifully animated explanation of Movie Pass and the next it might be a Humphrey Bogart analysis
I'd love to see a similar video on actors such as Peter O'Toole and Richard Harris. Though big part of their prime work stayed only with theatre audiences I still think one could make an interesting video on their stellar work in film
Have you ever thought about the use of monologues in shows/cinema and the impact it has on the viewer. HBO’s The News Room start the series off with it to grab the viewer’s attention to show initial purpose of the characters drive( but Jeff Daniels character is in an auditorium) . In a different way Hamlet does something similar but technically alone. Idk just a thought
have you seen Steve jobs, It's essentially a loose collection of conversations, the content of which repeats and develops as the film progresses. It then climaxes in fantastic monologues that works like the last part of a fight scene. It's essentially an action movie that has dialogue instead of fights.
Nobody delivered a monologue like Spencer Tracy. Judgement At Nuremberg(1961), as well as in Guess Who's Coming To Dinner?(1967), are just a few examples. Also, I think the monologues in All The President's Men are legendary as well.
Fleabag too
The newsroom one was directly inspired by Sidney Lumet’s Network
Love this video! Bogart's eyes are amazing, he can do so much acting with them and mostly by just being still, in the moment. None of these movies would have been even close to what they were woth another lead. He allowed himself to be vulnerable, tired, even scared, in a manner few other male actors at the time dared to.
I gained the love for movie history with Maltese Falcon, Key Largo and African Queen very early on. So much respect for this amazing actor.
What an absolutely, superbly well put together piece. Bravo!!
Watching him smoke just curdles my blood, even though i quit smoking 50 years ago.
Worth mentioning his final performance, nearly on his death bed in The Harder They Fall -- absolute brilliance. Without Bogie, I never would have delved into classic black and white films.
So happy that you made this. He’s mesmerizing to watch. I didn’t realize he worked for so long to make it and it paid off.
"THAT' was truly beautiful - The thesis, the images, the narrative
Thank you
*Just a video idea:* A rhetorical analysis of MasterClass ads and how they are so effective and persuasive, unlike other RUclips ads.
His performance in _The Petrified Forest_ was the real breakthrough. The fight between the optimist and the cynic, that became emblematic of Bogart's characters (or shall I say 'character'), begins from that film.
Also, _In a Lonely Place_ is one of the greatest films ever, as far as acting is concerned. How the intrusions of people into a relationship brings to surface the worst of that relationship is displayed so wonderfully that it is eerily real even today.
Cagney and Bogart were my all time favorite actors I grew up watching old movies on the late late show. I had posters of both of them on my wall. Bogart is amazing at what he did.
You skillfully wield the medium of video essays and weave in evidence to discuss something with such eloquence that it truly stirs something inside of me. I had a tear in my eye as the music welled and as you encouraged us to look at his eyes, the raw emotion in them and the constellation of techniques you used to bring us along with you. It is truly amazing. You're an inspiration.
My man!!! I will forever love him for his acting, and how he stood by Lena Horne.
Don't know how the talent scouts do it but this man brought so much to the screen.
Next to Toshiro Mifune, Bogart is my favorite actor of all time. Thanks for that, Nerdwriter1.
I'd still recommend Dead End among the old non-starring role Bogey films. He actually manages to take a small, simple part and make it sing with interiority and striking ambivalence.
He played a pretty good bad guy in The Petrified Forest
I love that movie.
It was an oversight to skip it.
I'm pretty sure that was his first film he ever appeared in.
Nathaniel Schwartz it was not his first film as it released in 1936 and started acting in 1928
Great movie. The whole cast is excellent.
Would have loved one of these on Jimmy Cagney. Loved that man.
To me Bogart is the silence between lines. Not just the "eyes" (which is apparently a Nerdwriter drinking game meme), but just the pregnancy of what was coming next. Sometimes nothing. Really a special talent that wouldn't work even 20 years after his hay-day.
Bogie, the Hollywood actor who started the group known as the Rat Pack, was and is, I agree, the greatest Hollywood star in history.
When I was in college I took a film class and we watched "The Maltese Falcon" and "Casablanca". I don't regret it for a second.
Damn, that "Dr. X" line in _Science Fiction Double Feature_ now has context
The biggest thing I enjoy about this channel is the fact that you can take an idea about a person or topic that I don't have much interest in, make a video that grabs me from beginning to end, then have me come out intrigued and inspired anyway. Thank you!
You're so inspiring.
Hope one day I can figure out how to educate people like you do.
Keep up!
I have copies of nearly all those movies. I was always fascinated by him, though he sounds like a complex and difficult man in real life. Yet, “nothing so became him in life as his leaving of it,” as The Bard put it, according to the many anecdotes of his final months, told by his famous friends. He faced a grisly, degrading end, with sheer courage and grace. When I heard those tales, I was moved to tears, because it seemed to confirm something about the man I always suspected about him. That he was one of the few screen legends that was a lot like his more heroic characters, in real life.
I’m here because the OG at Thugs Notes gave a glowing recommendation. Glad I came. Very glad. I’m wondering if you ever did anything on Raymond Chandler, my favourite writer, who’s literate genius has, in my view, been criminally underrated by the world, despite his enduring and massive popularity? If you like Bogey, you must rate Chandler? A fascinating and complex man too. Don’t know if you take suggestions, being new and all, but . . . ?
Wonderful essay. Thanks ✌️
Thanks Nerdwriter, I've always wondered about him and it's great to see even a glimpse.
I just love really good video essay channels like this
Again! What a beautiful video. The final seconds made me cry. 👍🏼❤️
Please do one on Brando. It’s a shame that there is no quality analysis of his acting on RUclips. Plus Bogart himself was in awe of him.
If we're doing an analysis on Golden Age actors, I vote Jimmy Stewart next! Absolute legend, not to mention war hero.
yes my 2nd favorite actor after Bogart
_"I walked straight in, 'playing it, Bogart.' Like I was doing it a hundred times."_
Hi Nerdwriter1, I've been a subscriber for a while now and I want to make comment on the fact that I think your analysis of artists or works of art or topics otherwise, are always interesting and fulfilling to watch. Anytime I see that you have a new video, it is an instant watch. I hope your channel grows and grows, you deserve many more subscribers and views, given that you output such high quality and thought into your videos. You're my favourite channel on RUclips, long may it continue. All the best, and I look forward to the next one!
Just made my first video essay. You inspired me to start! Thanks for making things we actually want to watch!
Several years ago in my intro to cinema class I couldn't remember Humphrey Bogart's name on a quiz, and in a desperate attempt to get partial credit guessed "Hogart"
Humphrey Bogart and Robert Mitchum are my favorite actors from Hollywood's Golden Age. Aside from their naturalism in their roles and magnetic presence on screen, they both possessed a mysterious aura that draws you in. They could project this wall of toughness and indifference yet convey so much depth and emotional intensity with their eyes and rugged face that keeps the audience curious about their motivations and feelings.
It was only last year that I saw Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre for the first time. Getting chills right now.
I’ve only seen a few of his films but you make them all sound so important and incredible to watch.
To me when Bogart became a legend, was when he played Sam Spade in Maltese Falcon.
He portrayed his character as God, but i mean he was playing with every character in the film and knowing the outcome to the end.
From a smile to himself or taking advantage of everyone from the damsel to the bad guys, he was in control of destiny.
Thanks for this video. I fucking love Humphrey Bogart 👍.
SPOT ON... This is the movie that sealed it for me... I mean I love Casablanca and it IS my favorite movie... but TMF sealed the deal... it's essentially the blueprint for a host of other movies that came after it.
@@MistaCham yea he was electric in the Maltese falcon
Love your videos man! I see so much analysis on recent movies, and those are great, but so few go into the golden age era. Keep doing what you do 😄😄😄
i saw the name Bogart and i was already on board! great vid!
I think this explains my admiration for Humphrey Bogart. "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" is the story of my life.
I'm 28 So Glad I grew up watching black and white movies and westerns with my mom , really helped since I didn't have a male role model ,always love the storylines characters and the way them men behaved.
Love this video, Bogart is one of my favorites.
Maltese Falcon and The Caine Mutiny are my most favorite.
I look forward to checking out the rest of your channel
Always LOVED him since I was 17. Long time. Great man and actor , husband and Father. So sad he left us so soon.
Thank you for the great essay. The African Queen was his best performance in my book. Such an adventure.
I've always loved his character work, and then this year I found out I'm related to him
What a beautiful episode you crafted. I love your work. Makes me have faith in humanity, at least for the length of your video
Watched Casablanca last night, hell of a movie watching experience, Bogart was truly iconic.
Siraj: it's even more intriguing when you learn the history behind the film ... I believe this film is the one and only all time great ... no other film comes close
Just say Casablanca. One of my all time favorite movies. Bogie wasn't the only great performer, but he was outstanding amongst some very tall trees. And, he never said "Play it again Sam."
He was fantastic in ‘In A Lonely Place’, but then he was fantastic in almost everything he was in.
Legendary actor ...not to shabby ..."Here's looking at you sweet heart"
Another fantastic narrative. I bet editing all that black and white film was a great experience. Thank you.
Thank you so much for making this video, I love Humphrey Bogart so much, he's definitely my favorite actor and I love seeing people still paying attention to him and his talent
Really, thank you
He was just so charming. I watched “Sabrina “ again yesterday, I kept thinking it I was Sabrina , I would just totally fall for him. He was not the most handsome , but there was some unspeakable charisma on him, makes him an irresistible man😅
As I’m in my Hollywood Studio System class and just finished watching Sabrina
