from
Wikipedia
The film cemented a strong personal and professional connection between Bogart and Huston.
Bogart admired and somewhat envied Huston for his skill as a writer.
Though a poor student, Bogart was a lifelong reader.
He could quote Plato, Pope, Ralph Waldo Emerson and over a thousand lines of Shakespeare.
He subscribed to the Harvard Law Review.
He admired writers, and some of his best friends were screenwriters, including Louis Bromfield, Nathaniel Benchley and Nunnally Johnson.
Bogart enjoyed intense, provocative conversation and stiff drinks, as did Huston.
Both were rebellious and liked to play childish pranks.
John Huston was reported to be easily bored during production, and admired Bogart ( who also got bored easily off camera ) not just for his acting talent but for his intense concentration on the set.
