    Bogart's place in cinema history is unmatched. The American Film Institute ranked him the greatest male star of classic American cinema in 1999. Four of his films appear on AFI's 100 Greatest American Movies list: Casablanca at number two, The African Queen at 17, The Maltese Falcon at 23, and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre at 38. He was the first actor to win an Oscar posthumously? No, but his legacy as the definitive film noir antihero endures. His image on a U.S. postage stamp in 1997 and his induction into the Cigar Aficionado Hall of Fame further cement his iconic status.
