A Martinique fishing boat, a war closing in from every side, and two of classic Hollywood's most electric screen partners meeting for the first time — To Have and Have Not, Howard Hawks's 1945 adventure, built its legend as much off camera as on it.

What is To Have and Have Not about?

Harry Morgan runs a charter boat off Martinique during the Second World War, keeping his distance from politics while ferrying wealthy clients out for a day's fishing. That distance collapses when he agrees to help transport a leader of the Free French Resistance and his wife to safety, pulling him directly into the occupation he had tried to sit out. Complicating matters further is a sharp, self-possessed lounge singer who drifts into his orbit and refuses to stay at arm's length. Hawks builds the film around the tension between Harry's professed neutrality and the war closing in on him from every direction, letting the romance and the resistance plot feed off each other rather than compete for attention.

About the cast

Humphrey Bogart plays Harry with the guarded, self-interested cool that suited his best roles of the decade, while Lauren Bacall, in her screen debut, matches him scene for scene with a confidence that made the pairing an instant sensation. Walter Brennan, Dolores Moran, Hoagy Carmichael, Sheldon Leonard, Walter Szurovy, and Marcel Dalio fill out a supporting ensemble of dockside regulars, resistance figures, and occupying officials circling the harbor.

Context & significance

Directed by Howard Hawks and released in 1945, the film draws loosely on an Ernest Hemingway novel but reshapes it into something closer to Hawks's own adventure-romance mold, mixing wartime intrigue with comic banter and musical numbers set in Harry's dockside bar. Its wartime Caribbean setting, standing in for occupied French territory, gives the film a claustrophobic, watched-from-every-angle atmosphere that suits its story of a man trying and failing to stay out of a larger conflict. The film is remembered today as much for launching Lauren Bacall as for its own considerable craft.
