Faulkner and Film

I would like to point out some of the information from the IMDB profile of Faulkner. He spent a considerable part of his productive life writing for Hollywood, including some well-known films like To Have and Have Not, the first Bogart-Bacall flick, and The Big Sleep (based on the Raymond Chandler novel, directed by Howard Hawks, starring Bogart and Bacall again). He spent most of the time working as a hack writer - doing uncredited script work for Hollywood studios.
