Nur drei Jahre später starb Bogart im Alter von 57 Jahren an Speiseröhrenkrebs. Sein filmisches Erbe bleibt unbestritten. 1988 wurde der Stoff für das US-Fernsehen verfilmt.Die TV-Version mit Jeff Daniels basierte jedoch nicht wie der Filmklassiker auf dem Roman von Herman Wouk, sondern auf seinem Bühnenstück "Die Caine-Meuterei vor Gericht".
