3. Humphrey Bogart

Loved it! And WHO did he SMACK in the film?

4. Bogart played the part ten years later...

9. I borrowed an amped up edition of the '41 from a library that had the '31 film, too.

Speaking of "Dracula", Dwight Frye, who played Renfield in the 1931 Bela Lugosi film also played Wilmer the gunsel in the '31 "Maltese Falcon."

What's the actor who starred in a GREAT older drama about a German officer who kills prostitutes and what is the name of the film?

5. Peter O'Toole as General Tanz in " Night of the Generals."

An old favorite of mine.

Omar Sharif and Phillipe Noiret were good in it, too.
