Houston's first film, The Maltese Falcon (1941), where Bogart first played the title role, brought fame to both. This is their second meeting. Mary Astor, the fatal beauty from the same "Maltese Falcon", was invited to the main female role. Sparkling with magnificent dialogues, the script allows Bogart to impressively demonstrate those qualities of a big star, for which his name was forever inscribed in the pantheon of world cinema fame. The film, released in 1942, was originally supposed to tell a fictional story about the work of Japanese intelligence in preparation for the attack on Pearl Harbor. After a real raid on the base of the US Pacific Fleet that materialized right during the work on the picture, the scriptwriters were forced to replace Pearl Harbor with Panama ... For the whole world: Richard Leland (Bogart) is a degraded artillery captain, expelled in disgrace from the armed forces for embezzlement. For a narrow circle of the elite: Rick is an undercover agent trying to uncover a conspiracy of the Japanese, preparing for military action against America. Humphrey Bogart ("San Quentin Prison"), Mary Astor ("The Maltese Falcon"), Sidney Greenstreet ("Advertisers") in John Huston's spy thriller "Across the Ocean".
