To Have and Have Not is a 1937 novel by Ernest Hemingway about Harry Morgan, a fishing boat captain who runs contraband and guns between Cuba and Florida. It was based on an earlier story, "One Trip Across". Legend has it that Hemingway wrote the book as part of a contractual obligation and hated it. It is also claimed that he wrote the book at the Compleat Angler Hotel on Bimini, in the Bahamas.Film adaptationsThe 1944 film To Have and Have Not nominally based on the novel and directed by Howard Hawks, moved the story's setting from Key West to Martinique under the Vichy regime.The second film version, titled The Breaking Point (1950), was directed by Michael Curtiz and starred John Garfield. It shifted the action to southern California and made Garfield a former PT Boat captain. Pauline Kael has claimed that the ending was used for John Huston's film Key Largo (1948), and that "One Trip Across" was made into The Gun Runners (1958).
