Humphrey Bogart

Read a short story of a famous movie star who became a symbol of old Hollywood.

1.1

Humphrey Bogart was a big movie star from long time ago. He was born in New York City on December 25, 1899. Bogart grew up in a family that liked art. His dad was good at drawing, and his mom was good at making art for advertisements.

همفری بوگارت ستاره بزرگ سینما در زمان‌های قدیم بود. او در 25 دسامبر 1899 در شهر نیویورک متولد شد. بوگارت در خانواده‌ای بزرگ شد که به هنر علاقه داشتند. پدرش در نقاشی خوب بود و مادرش در ساخت هنر برای تبلیغات مهارت داشت.

1.2

When Bogart was young, he did not plan to be an actor. He tried a lot of jobs, like working on ships and joining the U.S. Navy in a big war. But he really loved acting, so he went to Hollywood to try it.

وقتی بوگارت جوان بود، برنامه‌ای برای بازیگر شدن نداشت. او مشاغل زیادی را امتحان کرد، مانند کار بر روی کشتی‌ها و پیوستن به نیروی دریایی ایالات متحده در یک جنگ بزرگ. اما او واقعاً عاشق بازیگری بود، بنابراین به هالیوود رفت تا آن را امتحان کند.

1.3

Bogart became famous in the 1940s. He acted in big movies like "Casablanca" and "The Maltese Falcon." He played tough guys with a rough voice, but they were good guys at heart.

بوگارت در دهه 1940 معروف شد. او در فیلم‌های بزرگی مانند "کازابلانکا" و "شاهین مالت" بازی کرد. او مردان سرسختی با صدایی خشن بازی می‌کرد، اما در قلبشان خوب بودند.

1.4

He had a really cool style. He often wore a special kind of hat called a fedora and had a cigarette in his mouth. This style became his special look. People all over the world wanted to copy his style because he looked so cool and confident.

او یک سبک واقعاً جذاب داشت. او اغلب کلاه خاصی به نام فدورا می‌پوشید و سیگاری در دهان داشت. این سبک به ظاهر خاص او تبدیل شد. مردم در سراسر جهان می‌خواستند سبک او را کپی کنند زیرا او بسیار جذاب و با اعتماد به نفس به نظر می‌رسید.

1.5

In real life, Bogart liked sailing and was married a few times. His most famous wife was "Lauren Bacall." She was a movie star, too. They were a very famous couple.

در زندگی واقعی، بوگارت عاشق قایقرانی بود و چندین بار ازدواج کرد. معروف ترین همسرش "لورن باکال" بود. او نیز یک ستاره سینما بود. آنها یک زوج بسیار معروف بودند.

1.6

Bogart had some problems with drinking too much, but he continued acting in movies until he got sick and died in 1957.

بوگارت مشکلاتی با نوشیدن زیاد داشت، اما تا زمانی که در سال 1957 بیمار شد و درگذشت، به بازیگری در فیلم‌ها ادامه داد.

1.7

Fun fact: Humphrey Bogart liked playing chess a lot. He even played against the best chess player in the world once, but he did not win.

نکته جالب: هامفری بوگارت خیلی دوست داشت شطرنج بازی کند. او حتی یک بار با بهترین بازیکن شطرنج جهان بازی کرد، اما برنده نشد.
