A screening of the 1944 film To Have and Have Not, featuring the classic pairing of Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, with an introduction.
HOME is screening To Have and Have Not on Sunday 15 November, with an intro to set the scene before the film starts. It's a wartime romantic adventure, and for many, the real draw is the screen chemistry between Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. This was their first meeting on film, and it sparked one of Hollywood's most famous pairings — they married in 1945 and worked together on several more productions over the years.
Behind the camera, the film was directed by Howard Hawks, with a snappy script from William Faulkner and Jules Furthman. It draws loosely on Ernest Hemingway's novel, though it bears a strong resemblance to the 1942 classic Casablanca. It's remembered for the line "Anybody got a match?" and for a musical cameo by Hoagy Carmichael.
