I think I saw Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon. Never saw The African Queen. We were in the after war and money was scarce. My father being an inspector would prefer to take me to see operas free of charge. Yet I always admired Bogart. A great actor.

Oh, what a great memoir this would be, Victor. Did you see "The Phantom Of The Opera?" I cried. xoxoo
