...could have served as a travel poster for this international spirit. The director, Michael Curtiz, was from Budapest; the art director, Carl Jules Weyl, from Germany; the composer, Max Steiner, from Vienna. And of the top 20 names on the cast list, only three belonged to native Americans (Humphrey Bogart, Dooley Wilson and Joy Page); the rest represented the tattered flags of Hungary, Austria, Germany, France, Britain, Canada, Italy, the Soviet Union and Sweden.

...guarantor of happiness or security. Schickel reels off the familiar tragedies of those who found there was no room at the top: John Belushi, Freddie Prinze, Dylan Thomas, Janis Joplin, Marilyn Monroe.
