While many of his early films were supporting roles in major films starring James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, George Raft, or Bette Davis, as well as leads or second leads in B pictures, often type-cast as a gangster, Bogart would later play such notable roles as Fred C. Dobbs in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon, Charlie Allnut in The African Queen, and Rick Blaine in Casablanca.
