Funny how revealing this thread turned out to be!

It started because I am really hooked on old corny movies.

Bogart was in several classics, so I look for his.
EGR is just fun to watch act.
Peter Lorre is a hoot.
Most of these movies are "over the top" with corny acting but I really like them.

When reading about EGR , I found some trivia on IMDB (a great film resource) where I discovered his passion for art, baseball cards and cigar band collecting.
He mentions wanting "all your Ty Cobbs".

That site tends to not be too controversial, so it doesn't offer much opinion, but does mention the McCarthy era.
I ,for one, don't know much about this era but I may read up just to be able to form my own opinion.

Tonight I am finishing up "To have and have not", Bacall's first film with Bogey.

I haven't found the Lobert film on any site yet, but I will let you know if I do!
