Key Largo

Key Largo is a 1948 film starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson, Lauren Bacall, Claire Trevor, and Lionel Barrymore. It was directed by John Huston. Trevor won the 1949 Best Actress in a Supporting Role Academy award for her performance. This was the fourth and final film pairing of married actors Bogart and Bacall. Robinson had always had top billing over Bogart in their previous films together, and for this one, Robinson's name appears to the right of Bogart's but is placed a little higher on the posters and at the beginning of the film to indicate Robinson's near-equal status. Adapted from Maxwell Anderson's 1939 play. Ziggy, one of the film's gangsters, is played by Marc Lawrence who made a career playing gangsters in movies. Exterior shots of the hurricane were actually taken from stock footage used in Night Unto Night, a Ronald Reagan melodrama made the same year by Warner Bros.
