Knock on Any Door, the first film from Humphrey Bogart's Santana Productions, premiered in New York City exactly seventy years ago. Bogart initially tried to cast Marlon Brando in the role played by John Derek. This film, based on the novel by African-American author Willard Motley, originated the oft-used line "live fast, die young, leave a good-looking corpse." #knockonanydoor #humphreybogart #santanaproductions #johnderek #marlonbrando #filmnoir #premiere #onthisday #nyc #newyork #oldhollywood #goldenageofhollywood #quote #livefastdieyoung #willardmotley https://www.instagram.com/p/BuM5GTrFRx5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qbbmpt38mgt0
