| Tote schlafen fest Jahr: 1946 Regisseur: - Howard Hawks Schauspieler/Schauspielerinnen: - Humphrey Bogart - Lauren Bacall Murder, mystery and the magnetism of Bogart and Bacall. They were one of Hollywood's all-time legendary couples, both on screen and off; producing celluloid magic in the four films they made together between 1943 and 1948 as much as by their off-screen Romanze, which in itself was the stuff that dreams are made of. He was the American Film Insititute's No. 1 star of the 20th century, Hollywood's original noir anti-hero, who in addition to the AFI honors bestowed on his real-life persona also played two of the 20th century's Top 50 film heroes ("Casablanca"'s Rick Blaine and this movie's Philip Marlowe); epitome of the handsome, cynical and oh-so lonesome wolf, looking unbeatably cool in dinner jacket, trenchcoat and fedora alike, a glass of whiskey in his hand and cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth; and endowed with a legendary aura several times larger than his physical stature. She, despite a 25-year age difference his equal in everything from grit and toughness to mysterious appeal; chillier than bourbon on the rocks, possessing more than just a touch of class whatever her role; and long since a bona fide AFI movie legend in her own right. Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall met on the set of Howard Hawks's 1944 realization of Ernest Hemingway's "To Have and Have Not," where an obvious chemistry quickly developed between 45-year-old veteran Bogart, who had just scored two of film history's greatest-ever hits with "The Maltese Falcon" and "Casablanca" in the two preceding years, and the sassy, exciting 20-year-old newcomer who possessed the maturity and sex-appeal of a woman good and well 10 years her senior. They were reunited two years later for this adaptation of Raymond Chandler's first Philip Marlowe novel "The Big Sleep" (1939), based on a screenplay written, like that of "To Have and Have Not," by William Faulkner and Jules Furthman, together with Leigh Brackett (who had not participated in scripting the Hemingway adaptation). By the time the movie was released in 1946, Bogart and Bacall were married. Reprising Bogart's noir gumshoe role with a character not unlike Dashiell Hammett's Sam Spade in "The Maltese Falcon," the movie "The Big Sleep" is as infamous as Chandler's literary original for its labyrinthine plot, which reportedly even the author himself couldn't completely untangle (nor did he care to). The plot is essentially faithful to Chandler's novel, from which it takes much of its dialogue; albeit streamlined and with some changes made to fit Bogart's physical characteristics, and eliminating or softening a few scenes considered unfit for display to a moviegoing audience in the 1940s. The story begins when Marlowe is hired by wealthy old General Sternwood to handle a Schwarzmailing attempt involving gambling debts incurred by Sternwood's younger daughter Carmen (Marth Ein mal wieder herausragender Bogart Im Vergleich zu heutigen Filmen sowieso hervorragend...aber, auch im direkten Vergleich mit gleichaltrigen...toller Film...!!! Aber nur für s/w Liebhaber und Alt-Krimifans!!! Allerdings sehr zu empfehlen, in jeder Hinsicht...spannend, nervenkitzelnd,beanspruchend, zum mitdenken...!!! Sehr gut! zeitreise :-) Wer für Marlowe was übrig hat, sollte nicht zögern und sich diese DVD holen, schon alleine um den Film ohne die hölzerne Ãœbersetzung geniessen zu können. Ansonsten ist der Film vom Inhalt her wohl jedem bekannt, und trotzdem: Durch das gestochen scharfe Bild der DVD kann man sich auch mal an der Ausstattung freuen, den Möbeln, den Treppenhäusern, den Autos natürlich. Damit wird der Film zu einer Zeitreise. Das Buch kann man hundert Mal lesen, und auch die DVD wird man mehrere Male anschauen können. Rundrum empfehlenswert.
