Perhaps my favorite nugget of movie trivia ever: all of the cast and crew contracted dysentery from contaminated water while filming on location in the Congo. Except Bogart and his drinking buddy Huston.

Bogart later said, “All I ate was baked beans, canned asparagus, and Scotch whiskey. Whenever a fly bit Huston or me, it dropped dead.”
