Woody Allen's influence is obvious ......
2 September 2019
There is no denying that Robert Sacchi has his Humphrey Bogart impersonation nailed cold. He was outstanding in Woody Allen's "Play it Again Sam" (1972), and I believe that experience has carried through to "The Man With Bogart's Face". (1980) . There are some one liners in "The Man With Bogart's Face" that sound very "Woodish". The movie itself features Sacchi and his wonderful Bogart impersonation as private eye Sam Marlow, He is involved with at least a bunch of shady characters and cases. There is no shortage of beautiful women however, buzzing around the "bogus Bogart". Perhaps the weakest part could be the storyline, which is confusing at times. Nevertheless you will be so fixated on all the perfect Bogart mannerisms, that you will hardly notice. - MERK
