Reacting to TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT (1944) | Movie Reaction

[@tomw324]

Lauren Bacall was only 19 when she made her film debut in this one and despite her glamorous worldly wise portrayal she said she was scared to death the whole time. And Hoagie Carmichael on the piano. Now you have to watch Best Years of our Lives. You simply have to.

Carmichael was also famous for writing some top songs of the era.

The piano player in the bar is the famous songwriter Hoagy Carmichael, who wrote famous tunes like Georgia on My Mind, Star Dust, and a host of others. And the song from this movie, The Hong Kong Blues. the Mob Boss played the doorman to the gambling room, 2 years earlier in Casablanca.

These movies are very similar in plots. Casablanca was a city in the French colony of Morocco in North Africa, Martinique was a French Island in the Caribbean. Both were controlled by the Vichy French government which capitulated with the Germans following the fall of Paris in 1939. In each story, there are French resistance fighters who are needing help from Humphrey Bogart's character. Bogart plays an American expat in both. In Casablanca he runs a bar and here he runs a charter fishing service. Bacall and the married Bogart did begin an affair during filming. Bogart who was 46 yrs old would divorce his third wife and marry the 20 yr old Bacall a month later. It was quite the scandal being 1945. They would remain married for the next 12 years, until his death and have 2 children. Until the day she died in 2014 she recalled that Bogey was the one true love of her life.

[@falcychead8198]

This was her first leading role in a film, and she was nervous about her performance, that she wouldn't be able to pull off a "femme fatale" type role. Bogart gave her the advice to keep her head tilted slightly down while looking up. That look became "the look" for which she would be famous.

Good job, @DawnMarieX. 1. Stumpy is played by Walter Brennan, a formerly obscure character actor who became a big star. (He had appeared, sometimes without billing, in Three Stooges and W.C. Fields films.) He ultimately became a big star, even had his own TV show and his own Disney kiddie movies. Not a nice guy in real life, though. 2. Lots of people doubt that's really Lauren Bacall's singing voice, bt it is. (The false rumor was that she was dubbed by Andy Williams or some male singer -- again it's false.) 3. If you want to see Bogart and Bacall in another great one, do THE BIG SLEEP. #DawnMarieX

[@EShelby2127]

Walter Brennan in "Support Your Local Sheriff" with James Garner is a fave!

[@cwdkidman2266]

Lauren Bacall called Harry "Steve" by mistake and everyone just went with it. She was 19. Hawks was stuck on her but she fell for the drunk in the toupee. Humphrey Bogart.

[@cliffchristie5865]

To establish some of the players: The fat man is Dan Seymour, who played a doorman in "Casablanca". Frenchy is Marcel Dalio, who played a croupier at "Rick's", also in "Casablanca". Lt. Coyo is Sheldon Leonard, who played Nick the bartender in "It's A Wonderful Life". You can see a more mature Lauren Bacall in the 1974 adaptation of "Murder On The Orient Express". And, yes that's Walter Brennan as Eddie from, like, every other movie made between 1925 and 1972 - including "Rio Bravo" - except for this one he had his teeth in. Lastly, the piano player is Hoagy Carmichael, best remembered for a supporting role in "The Best Years Of Our Lives" - a film you haven't watched, but should.

[@stupidsmart-phone6911]

10:31 one of the most iconic movie quotes ever. Now you can watch "A Night In Casablanca" (1946) and you'll appreciate the reference. Other good films with these actors: Lauren Bacall - The Shootist Bogie - Treasure Of The Sierra Madre Walter "stumpy" Brennen - Support Your Local Sheriff (but watch My Darling Clementine first)

[@mikecaetano]

Nice! To Have and Have Not is one of my favorite films. The heat between Bogart and Bacall is palpable. "If you want me, just whistle. You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and blow." And yes, that's Stumpy. Eddie is played by Walter Brennan. He played the side kick in many golden era classics, including The Westerner (1940), Red River (1948), The Far Country (1954), Blood on the Moon (1948), and Bad Day at Black Rock (1955). PS. Two other great Bogey & Bacall films are Key Largo (1948) and The Big Sleep (1946). And to see her in something completely different, check out Dogville (2003).

The piano player is Hoagy Carmichael. Unknown to most young people today but the composer of "Stardust" one of the great tunes of the age (1927, with lyrics added in 1929 by Mitchell Parish). Understandably, it was almost a hundred years ago. One of the most recorded songs of the jazz era, but now faded away. A strange kind of love song. It's not a song about being in love, it's a song about _remembering_ being in love.

[@MaBer-67391]

Lauren Bacall was always known for having that deep voice.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

Yay! I recommend this for everyone who loves CASABLANCA. Director Howard Hawks bet his friend Ernest Hemingway he could take his worst novel and make it a great film - and he did, but the film bears very little resemblance to the book. The director's wife saw Lauren Bacall on a magazine cover when she was just 18 and talked Howard into signing her for the film - her first ever. This was also Hoagy Carmichael's first credited film - and Howard Hawks had discovered him at a party. "Steve" and "Slim" were the nicknames Howard Hawks and his wife used for each other - Bogey and Bacall started using them for each other on and off the set, so was an inside-joke between the two couples. Another great Howard Hawks film stars John Wayne in HATARI! (1962). Filmed in East Africa, and J.W. reportedly did all his own stunts, as an international crew of game catchers go about their dangerous work. It's actually a Rom/Com with Elsa Martinelli as his love interest.

[@JeffreyCantelope]

Yes it is Stumpy AKA Walter Brennan.

[@8967Logan]

One of my favorites particularly because it's the movie where Bogie and Bacal first met. I believe that is her singing. If I remember correctly, they were going to have another woman (like Marnie Nixon) sing for her but decided against it. Other Bogie and Bacal movies include "The Big Sleep" (love it) and "Key Largo" (lots of people love it).

Glad you liked this Hollywood classic. Great reaction. Walter Brennan ( Stumpy for always in your reference) was a great actor that was more than comic relief. He is a great villain in Westerns, played cynics well, and could easily be in a Western, modern tale, or just about anything. You will see him I’m sure in some classic westerns in the future and I expect your same wonderful reaction that we watched.

[@HuntingViolets]

For years, it was said that Andy Williams did the singing for Lauren Bacall (who went by "Betty" in her real life), but Bacall has said it was actually her singing -- once Hawks heard her, he decided she could do it. Hawks liked her deep speaking voice and had her do exercises to make it deeper, including screaming, apparently. He was interested in her and Bogart and Bacall hid their relationship from him. Bogart was already married but the marriage was not a happy one (he and his wife were known as "the battling Bogarts"). Howard Hawks also directed many other films, including _Bringing Up Baby_ (screwball comedy), _The Big Sleep_ (film noir), and westerns.

[@luckyskittles8976]

A great choice!!! Lauren Bacall was 20 when she married , in 1945, Bogart, he was 45. She had a great career, " Key Largo'" is another great movie with both of them. If you decide to react to "Misery", Bacall is the book editor in theat movie.

The "French" wife was Irish-American actress and pin-up favorite Dolores Moran. Guys were ABSOLUTELY CRAZY HOT for her in her time. Walter Brennan was Stumpy/the Rummy/Pastor Pyle in 3 Hawks classics: Rio Bravo/To Have And Have Not/Sergeant York. He was second lead in Hawks' Red River but I don't remember his name. All four are in the National Film Registry of the Library Of Congress, along with 7 other Howard Hawks films for a total of 11, the most of any director, with John Ford second at 10 movies. And Ford got 2 or 3 Best Director Oscars. Hawks never won one and was only nominated once. But Cahiers Du Cinema and the French New Wave in the early 50s made Hawks a cause celebre, proclaiming him the only auteur film director of Hollywood's Golden Age. Then American critics Andrew Sarris and Molly Haskell championed him. Sarris wrote "if you don't like Howard Hawks movies, you don't like America." Proving that you could make hit movie after hit movie after hit movie in Hollywood and still be regarded as lightweight. And ignored by everyone except the millions who flocked to see his movies. Especially when he had Cary Grant (5 films) or Humphrey Bogart (2 films) or John Wayne (5 films - 4 westerns and an African) (and the African was NOT about big game hunting bullshit but guys who rounded up animals for zoos). It was John Ford who liked to make movies about Great White Hunters in Africa. And Hawks was called the most optimistic AND least sentimental and most humane director in Old Hollywood. Don't watch his movies for high body counts of dead people and paranoia and not knowing whom to trust. Look at Rio Bravo. Wheeler is the only named character who dies/is gunned down. In fact, the dialogue is so clever and fun and adult you hate it when the boys (papa Wayne, mama Stumpy, and their kids, Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson) remember that they're in a Western and have to pick up their guns. Hawks made great "Hanging With My Buds" movies. Even Gentlemen Prefer Blondes have at its core a buddy-buddy friendship between Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe equal to any male buddy-buddy movie like Butch and Sundance. In fact Jane Russell's character was so sexually frustrated she sings "Ain't Anyone Here For Love?" in a gym,full of Olympic athletes who are only interested in pumping iron and oiling each other up. Hawks gave Marilyn Monroe 2 big career-making movies, Monkey Business in 1952 and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes 53 or 54. And unlike other directors who emphasized her bosom, Hawks emphasized her great big,sexy ass and had her dresses made to fit right across her butt but normal everywhere else. When Monroe leaves an office (she's the company head's private secretary) to find someone to type a letter, Cary Grant and the company president watch her wiggle her way out of the room. When she's gone the company president says "Anyone can type." Now you know more than you wanted about Howard Hawks

The Big Sleep is one of my favorites.

@@jj05167 mine, too! I’ve even watched it on an airplane. Great book, too.

Bacall was 19 years old here. Bogart was 44, they married 18 months or so later. They had two kids and were married about 12 years until Bogey died in 1957.

Kinda, weirdly, feeling like that ought to have a spoiler warning on it...

Wow. All I got at 19 was my journeyman welder's card.

It was a real pleasure to see your reactions to this film. Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall are such a fabulous pair on film together. Two other films that are my all time favorites are..... The Big Sleep and Key Largo. The Big Sleep is really intriguing in part because the story gets a bit complicated. Due to multiple rewrites in the script which at times didn't match. But the film itself is totally entertaining with amazing dialog and characters. Key Largo has the two actors together, a little bit older this time with a solid story and a major storm. Thanks for doing this one♥♥♥

Best Movie Ever!!!!!!!! Lauren Bacall said she was so nervous shooting this film, she did the "chin down, look up" acting to keep her chin from shaking when she had to speak. Walter Brennan is fantastic (as usual!).

Thanks for watching one of my favorite movies. Enjoyed your reaction

[@stevenspringer1599]

Since you're in the neighborhood, you would enjoy "The Asphalt Jungle" (1950) - a seriously excellent crime caper

[@drg3712]

Chill vibe…. Yup, that’s Lauren Bacall. And ❤❤ Walter Brennan

[@dennisshaper4744]

To see Walter Brennan's(Stumpy) range, you could watch 'The Westerner' with Gary Cooper, where he plays Judge Roy Bean. Or 'My Darling Clementine' with Henry Fonda, where Walter is the heavy(bad guy).

She was a teenager, she was just a kid when she made this movie.

[@tlm101155]

Bogart and Bacall did another film called "Key Largo" which is one of my favorite movies.

[@custardflan]

Two other great Bogie and Bacall movies -- Key Largo and The Big Sleep, which inspired The Big Lebowski.

When he called her slim, she said that she was too skinny to appreciate the nick name and when he still called her slim ,she started calling him Steve(even though his name is Harry) just to be ornery, so from then on her nick name for Harry was Steve

07:00 Do you notice the cart full of blocks of ice. That's how they kept things cold before refrigeration.

[@mikevandenboom5958]

I still have the hots for Lauren, what a class act.

[@billolsen4360]

That shows that you're still healthy!
