Oh, and this production fact is after this, George Raft traveled in time and then did a Q&A about it at the American Cinematheque and then came back into the 40s.
Sterling CookGUEST
16:24
Is it true George Raft? I think maybe I'm thinking of like a long, you must remember this episode that I heard decades ago or something, but like Bogart really got his start because Raft was dropping out of these gangster pictures and Bogart kind of slid into his lane.
Sterling CookGUEST
16:37
And interestingly enough, we're talking about him here and he's, I find him so much less compelling than Bogart.
