BOGIE: A CELEBRATION
Book ID/图书代码: 10100006B09329
English Summary/英文概要: Given his pivotal role in cinema history as the very personification of Film Noir, Bogart’s career as a leading actor was astonishingly brief. He first emerged as a significant Hollywood contender in 1941 with "High Sierra" and the "Maltese Falcon", went on to produce his iconic performance in "Casablanca" in 1943, won an Oscar for "The African Queen" in 1953 and completed "Beat the Devil" and "The Caine Mutiny" before ill-health forced his retirement in 1956. Yet, close to a dozen of his films are unchallenged landmarks in the history of American cinema. On-screen, playing private eyes like Sam Spade or Philip Marlowe, he was the quintessential tough guy; but off it he was courteous and a professional to his fingertips - dedicated to his art, never late on the set or unprepared with his lines. If his career was meteoric, his private life was the stuff of Hollywood legend. On first meeting Lauren Bacall he told her: ’I saw your test. We’re going to have a lot of fun together.’ And they proceeded to do just that, both on-screen and off. This new biography, written by two leading critics and movie historians, and illustrated with over 200 photographs in colour and black and white, some of them never previously published, is a worthy tribute to one of the cinema’s enduring icons.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 對於著名的電影史上灰色電影的最具代表性的人物,鮑嘉作為一個一線演員的職業生涯是非常短暫的。他第一次展露他作為好萊塢炙手可熱的明星的影片是在1941年拍攝的《連綿高山》和《馬爾他獵鷹》,接著是他在1943年《卡薩布蘭卡》創作的標誌性人物,在1953年的《非洲女王號》為他贏得了奧斯卡獎以及在完成《戰勝惡魔》和《凱恩艦叛變》之前,終於在1956年,因為健康原因而迫使他提前退休。然而,他所拍攝的一系列的電影是美國影曆中無法比擬的標誌性作品。螢幕上,鮑嘉所扮演的如山姆•史佩德或是菲力浦•馬婁的私家偵探,他曾是標準的螢幕硬漢;但是螢幕下的鮑嘉卻是一個彬彬有禮的紳士和一個專業的演員— 獻身于他所熱愛的藝術事業,從來沒有在片場遲到或是經常遺忘臺詞。如果說他的職業生涯宛如一顆流星,那麼他的私人生活則是好萊塢的傳奇。第一次與勞倫•白考爾相遇時,他曾對她說:“我明白了你的想法。我們在一起會玩得很開心的。”而兩人在螢幕上和螢幕下也是這樣延續他們的關係的。這本新的自傳,有兩個主要的影評家和電影歷史學家所撰寫,用超過200幅的彩色和黑白照片作為插圖,其中的一些以前從未公開展示過,這是一本值得一看的而且是經久不衰的電影標誌性自傳小說。(Sandy)
