　　Humphrey Bogart: it’s hard to think of anyone who’s had the

same lasting impact on the culture of movies. Though he died at the

young age of fifty-seven more than half a century ago, his

influence among actors and filmmakers, and his enduring appeal for

film lovers around the world, remains as strong as ever. What is it

about Bogart, with his unconventional looks and noticeable speech

impediment, that has captured our collective imagination for so

long? In this definitive biography, Stefan Kanfer answers that

question, along the way illuminating the private man Bogart was and

shining the spotlight on some of the greatest performances ever

captured on celluloid.

Bogart fell into show business almost by accident and worked for

nearly twenty years before becoming the star we know today. Born

into a life of wealth and privilege in turn-of-the-century New

York, Bogart was a troublemaker throughout his youth, getting

kicked out of prep school and running away to join the navy at the

age of nineteen. After a short, undistinguished stint at sea,

Bogart spent his early twenties drifting aimlessly from one

ill-fitting career to another, until, through a childhood friend,

he got his first theater job. Working first as a stagehand and

then, reluctantly, as a bit-part player, Bogart cut his teeth in

one forgettable role after another. But it was here he began to

develop a work ethic; deciding that there were “two kinds of men:

professionals and bums,” Bogart, for the first time in his life,

wanted to be the former.

After the Crash of ’29, Bogart headed west to try his luck in

Hollywood. That luck was scarce, and he slogged through more than

thirty B-movie roles before his drinking buddy John Huston wrote

him a part that would change everything; with High Sierra, Bogart

finally broke through at the age of forty—being a pro had paid

off.

What followed was a string of movies we have come to know as the

most beloved classics of American cinema: The Maltese Falcon,

Casablanca, The Big Sleep, The African Queen . . . the list goes on

and on. Kanfer appraises each of the films with an unfailing

critical eye, weaving in lively accounts of behind-the-scenes fun

and friendships, including, of course, the great love story of

Bogart and Bacall. What emerges in these pages is the portrait of a

great Hollywood life, and the final word on why there can only ever

be one Bogie.

  　　《澳大利亚》一部风光绝美的爱情电影，不仅可以感动观众，还能担负起宣传旅游的重任。由澳大利亚籍明星妮可·基德曼和休·杰克曼主演的史诗巨片《澳大利亚》，在讲述一个荡气回肠的冒险爱情故事的同时，全方位展现了澳大利亚的壮丽美景。近日，借电影全球首映的东风，澳大利亚旅游局力邀《澳大利亚》导演巴兹·鲁赫曼打造的了一系列以“寻觅真我”为主题的全新旅游宣传片，宣传口号正是“喜欢电影，就来旅游吧 ”，澳大利亚联邦旅游部长Martin Ferguson日前就公开表示：“这部影片将会有数以千万计的人观赏，它将带领人们认识澳大利亚奇异的自然环境、历史与土著文化，是近年最重要的旅游业宣传良机。”澳大利亚旅游局还顺势推出名为“寻觅真我之旅”的路线，游客可寻访电影中所涉及的外景地。澳大利亚旅游局希望效仿《魔戒》宣传新西兰的旅游资源，通过这部以国家命名的电影更直接地吸引游客。
