A different approach to the movie might be watching Eastwood's "White Hunter, Black Heart" (1990), which takes us into the making of the film. The cast and crew are renamed to protect the innocent, but there's simply no mistaking the reconstructed steamer, the location, and two stars who look, act and sound a lot like Bogey and Hepburn. We also have an artist's rendition of Bogart's new bride, Loren, on the set.
This one might grab you, ER.
A serious movie that I found a bit funny at the outset, with a svelte Clint playing the much rounder John. The two averaged 6'3", but Eastwood looks a lot taller in this rendition, just because he's playing the part of Huston. He also uses the stilted annunciation, like someone practicing a growing vocabulary, that John Huston was famous for.
Definitely a good movie.
