In The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre, Stephen Youngkin chronicles the making of Casablanca, including interviews with screenwriter Julius J. Epstein and actor Dan Seymour. Initially unsure how Peter Lorre would fit into their stable of contract players, Warner Bros. came to a decision after Peter’s performance as Ugarte, the pivotal character who gets the movie’s action going by obtaining a pair of valuable “letters of transit”, and offered the actor a 3-year contract with yearly options.
The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre is available on the Kindle and Nook, as well as hard-back and soft-bound.
