The classic, genre-defining gumshoe in the 1941 film noir The Maltese Falcon is played by which actor?

Directed by legend John Huston, Humphrey Bogart's iconic character Sam Spade still influences detectives in television and film. In an enduring scene, Bogart's character slaps Peter Lorre's character and tells him "When you're slapped, you'll take it and like it."
