The fatal myth of man in the film was less frequent than that of the femme fatale, because the patriarchal society excluded from the image of male traits ambiguity and melancholy.
1936 was, perhaps, the year of birth of man in fatal film The Petrified Forest based on a play by Robert Sherwood. They crossed at an inn in the desert two men fatal: Leslie Howard, writer and pessimistic wandering defined himself: "I belong to a dying breed: I am an intellectual," and Humphrey Bogart, his antithesis, the role of Duke Mantee, the sentimental bandit reflected: "I spent half my life in prison, spend the rest died. " American theater of the thirties was noted for caustic dialogue, a habit inherited from Hollywood. The film meant at the same time the creation of the mythical character of Bogart.
While Bogart, born the fatal man in the French film with Jean Gabin in Pepe Le Moko (1937). It is difficult to decide which was the true creator of man fatal if Bogart and Jean Gabin, were two quite different types of fatal men, conditioned by their cultures and their own biographies.
Unlike the case of the fatal man in Hollywood movies, character, largely derived from the American realist novel of the thirties, especially from so-called "thoug writers" or "hard boiled." The differences with the similar character of French poetic realism are obvious, as it comes to crime or suicide for the love of a woman in the film American black social problems prevail over the passions, the struggles were for money and power, there was plenty of misogyny and women played a secondary role, except when they themselves were killer. The lives of men fatal realism was a French black-fled inextricable enigma did not know why or where-and the environments in which they moved were vague and often exotic. In contrast, the marginal Americans were mixed in a society very well defined: the city of New York or Los Angeles. Occupations were typical of capitalist society: they were either gangsters - "the dirty side of the struggle for the dollar," said Philip Marlowe or composing a new character of literary origin, the private detective, so real that the very Dashiell Hammett was one of them in his youth
Sam Spade's character in The Maltese Falcon (Dashiell Hammett, 1929) into a movie by John Huston, was used for the consecration of its director and Bogart, and marked the beginning of the genre of black films, for, until then, the Class B Warner.
The other was a private detective Marlowe on the verge of the abyss (Howard Hawks, 1946) on Raymond Chandler novel. Both characters, Spade and Marlowe, were disenchanted with their own lives and society around them. They were also skeptical of the law and only believed in their own freedom. The ambiguity of morality and values \u200b\u200bof these characters fascinated the French existentialist named gender as "Thriller" when they appeared in the postwar period in the library led by Marcel Duhamel Gallimard. In addition to these works had some criticism of the social and political reality-Hammet had been a Marxist-lacking the French poetic realism reduced to the realm of individual and fatality.
Chand-ler, The Long Goodbye, where Marlowe speaks of himself, it is useful to describe the character of man's fatal black American cinema: "I am a lone wolf. I'm not married, I am entering middle age and am not rich (...) My parents are dead, I have no brothers and if someone let me get shot in a dark alley, no one will feel he has lost the meaning and foundation of your life. "
In Casablanca (Michael Curtiz, 1943), Bogart added new facets to the character. Its gunmen and private detectives had been apolitical. In contrast, the cynical and skeptical Rick Blaine, owner of North African cabaret all stateless refugee of the war, had fought for the Republicans in the English Civil War, and finally lost the woman he loves to save the life of a militant anti-fascist .
This part of Bogart and company has been stumped by Juan Jose Sebreli
