Named the greatest male film star of all time by the American Film Institute, Bogart defined the noir detective role, creating the persona of “cool” along the way. The Academy Award winner dominated the 1940s and 1950s with a long list of now-classic films.

The series will end with another noir classic, “The Big Sleep,” on Feb. 3. This film reunited Bogart and Becall with director Howard Hawks in Raymond Chandler’s story of private eye Philip Marlowe. Marlowe is hired by a wealthy general to help his rebellious daughter, who is being blackmailed over gambling debts. Soon he realizes there is a second daughter to contend with, and Marlowe finds himself in a web of love triangles, organized crime and murder.
