... and Harry probably accurately represents the kind of people he met in his travels. The dialogue is very sharp, the kind of snappy exchanges that cinema was blessed with in the fifties. The film (which incidentally bears very little resemblance to the book on which it is based) stars Humphrey Bogart in the role of Harry, and while reading the book I couldn't help but picture him speaking the words on the page. Don't worry if you haven't seen the film though, the conversations make for great reading in ...more
