Description
“No more gangster roles for me,” declares disgruntled “second fiddle” movie actor Humphrey Bogart in 1941, obtaining a special investigators license, planning to turn his back on Hollywood. But super stardom and World War Two are about to fall on the unsuspecting Bogie. His own world becomes shaken by his homicidal wife, a crashing encounter between a mysterious submarine and his beloved cabin cruiser The Sluggy, a priceless emerald and diamond necklace stolen from Russia’s murdered Czarina and death screaming from the skies.
Then there are those screen actresses: friendly, willing, eager, and easily as dangerous as the sting from a scorpion.
Bogie is also filled with doubts about his upcoming starring role in a pesky run-of-the-mill melodramatic movie that the cynical and greedy studio big shots are calling “sophisticated hokum.” The film? Casablanca.
