...other ways though, things haven't changed much. True, Alfred Hitchcock's arrival in the Square would now be a minor occurrence compared to Bob Dylan's grand entrance, but lines still form in front of Bogart movies at the local theaters. University librarians perpetually devise and abandon schemes to force students to return their books on time and Cambridge officials continue to fret over illegally parked cars. And the town remains, as The Crimson warned incoming freshmen more than two decades ago "a dreary place, given to rain and coal smoke and brown, granulated slush." Perhaps most importantly...

...beautiful women, Humphrey Bogart's hat and Neil Simon's jokes," crowed squint-eyed Actor Peter Falk, he of the unspeakable raincoat (Columbo). "I'm not saying it's heaven. But it's at least across the hall." In this case, near-Valhalla is the forthcoming Bogart spoof, Cheap Detective, set in 1940s San Francisco.

A natty Falk makes time with all six ladies while stumbling up against the Gestapo on a hunt...

Later, the theater swells with the sounds of As Time Goes By, and it is Casablanca's turn. But in this revisionist history, Ingrid Bergman does not ask Sam to play it again.

Keaton's whole career, in fact, has been spent in convincing herself-nobody else ever seems to have doubted her -that she is a gifted actress. In 1968, when she auditioned for the original Broadway version of Play It Again, Sam, Allen's comic tribute to Humphrey Bogart, she was, she says with double underlining, "just sick. There were all these other women there to try out for the part, and I was scared to death." And she probably could not have walked on to do her bit-if it wasn't so obvious that Allen...
