To Have and Have Not Edited by Bruce F. Kawin Tino Balio, Series Editor Wisconsin/Warner Bros. screenplay series The story of the making of To Have and Have Not (1944) is an exciting and complex one, ranging from the widely reported romance between its stars, Humphrey Bogart and the unknown nineteen-year old Lauren Bacall, to one of the more subtle developments in the wartime alliance between the United States and the Batista regime in Cuba. Bruce F. Kawin's substantial and informed introduction reflects this excitement while explaining the complexities, helping all film scholars, students, and buffs to gain a fuller appreciation of one of Hollywood's most memoriable melodramas. This is a story also of a collaboration among four important writers: Ernest  Hemingway, Howard Hawks, Jules Furthman, and William Faulkner.
