History Film / ToHaveAndHaveNot

This was the first of four films to co-star Bogart and Bacall, who fell in love in real life during filming. It's also [[TheFilmOfTheBook based on a novel]] by Creator/ErnestHemingway, though he didn't think much of it, and actually bet Hawks he couldn't make a movie from it; Creator/WilliamFaulkner contributed to the screenplay adaptation. It turned out to be a big hit with both critics and audiences, and is well regarded today.

* AlcoholHic: Again, Eddie.

* LesCollaborateurs: The government of Martinique takes its orders from the Vichy regime.

* InCaseYouForgotWhoWroteIt: The opening titles and posters (as seen above) proclaim this is "Ernest Hemingway's ''To Have and Have Not''". Ironic, considering it's an InNameOnly adaptation.

* LaResistance: The Free French movement. Harry ends up siding with them.

* {{Fainting}}: Helene de Bursac passes out during the surgery on her husband.

* OralFixation: Hoagy Carmichael (the pianist) played most of his scenes with a matchstick in his teeth.

* SelfPlagiarism: At one point, Marie tells Harry, "I'm hard to get, Steve. All you have to do is ask me." Creator/HowardHawks had previously used that line in his film ''Film/OnlyAngelsHaveWings'', with Creator/JeanArthur saying it to Creator/CaryGrant.

* TooDumbToLive:
** Johnson gets killed by a stray bullet because he goes to the front door to get a better look at the gunfight outside.
** When they run into the Vichy patrol ship, Harry tells the unarmed Paul and Helene to hide by laying flat on the deck. When the firefight breaks out, Paul stands up anyway and gets a bullet in his shoulder for the trouble.

* AffectionateNickname: Harry and Marie call each other Steve and Slim.

* WriteWhoYouKnow: Marie was based on Hawks' real-life wife at the time, including her nickname "Slim".

* {{Expy}}: Marie was based on Hawks' real-life wife at the time, including her nickname "Slim".

* InSeriesNickname: Harry and Marie never call each other by their names; he calls her "Slim" (see {{Expy}} above), and she calls him "Steve" (possibly because it's short for stevedore, which he is).

* InCaseYouForgotWhoWroteIt: The opening titles and posters (as seen above) proclaim this is "Earnest Hemingway's ''To Have and Have Not''". Ironic, considering it's an InNameOnly adaptation.

Harry Morgan (Bogart) is an expatriate fishing boat captain living in Martinique, which is controlled by the French [[TheEmpire Vichy government]], which of course at the time supported [[ThoseWackyNazis the Nazis]]. He and his [[TheAlcoholic alcoholic]] partner Eddie (Walter Brennan) take an American businessman named Johnson out fishing, and are unsuccessful, due to Johnson's poor ability. When they get back to the hotel they're staying at, Johnson promises to pay Harry the money he owes him the next morning, when he gets to go to the bank. At the hotel, the owner, Frenchy (Marcel Dalio) tells Harry some friends of his want to hire him, but knowing it's part of the resistance movement Frenchy belongs to, Harry turns him down, even when Frenchy's friends approach him. Also at the hotel, Harry ends up meeting Marie (Bacall), another expatriate, and they immediately become attracted to one another. She also ends up stealing Johnson's wallet, which is how Harry finds out Johnson actually had enough money in traveler's checks to pay him, but was planning to skip town. When Harry confronts him, Johnson sheepishly starts to sign over the traveler's checks when a shootout happens between Frenchy's friends and the police. Two of Frenchy's friends escape, but the others are killed, and Johnson is also caught in the crossfire and killed. Captain Renard (Dan Seymour), the head Gestapo in the area, brings Harry and Marie in for questioning; he's satisfied for the moment they had nothing to do with the resistance men, but insists on taking Harry's passport and his money, even the money Harry had taken from Johnson (since he died before signing the checks).

* LaResistance: The Free French movement. Harry ends up siding with them.
