The Bogart Moment
The American iconography of masculinity is often identified with John Wayne. Bogart actually matters more to, I don't know, the kind of like personas you see in prestige television. He doesn't even look that short in this movie. In some movies he does. This one they figured it out. It's not too late to change Knox's name. You're still under the two year window. So many behavioral therapists would tell you that it is too late. The bogey moment really is a Maltese fact. And together that creates like the true myth of Bogart as you know, a rye, cynical, sentimental man in a trench coat.
