Casablanca (DVD 2000)

Description
Perennially at the top of every all-time-greats list, and indisputably one of the landmarks of cinema. Bogart is Rick Blaine, an American expatriate and war profiteer in WW II Morocco. He's content to merely run the Cafe Americain until love in the form of a Ilsa, the luminous Bergman, returns to his life after breaking his heart years before. Ilsa's husband Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid) is the Czech Resistance leader whose only hope of safe transport, and Ilsa's, from Morocco is Rick Blaine. Ilsa offers herself as a bargaining tool to encourage Rick to transport her husband, but he must choose between his own happiness and the lives of others. An accidental Hollywood masterpiece, this spine-tingling tear-jerker just gets better and better - as time goes by.

Credits
Producer:Hal B. Wallis, Jack Warner
Score Composer:Max Steiner

I bought it because, despite the film being a classic, I had never been able to see it through! There was always some reason that I was interrupted or called away. On May 25th I became 65 and retired. Nobody will call me away and nobody will interrupt my viewing and I am going to sit and enjoy like millions before me.

Casablanca - easy to enter, much harder to leave, especially if your name is on the top of the Nazis' most wanted list. This sets the scene for this brilliant 'film noir'. Humphrey Bogart plays broken-hearted Rick Blaine, sometime gun-runner, sometime fascist killer, present owner of a bar, wallowing in self-pity after a love affair ended in Paris just as the Germans moved in.
Guess who turns up? His ex-lover (Ingrid Bergman) from Paris with her husband, oh dear, what does Rick do now, especially as she wants some travel documents that he has.
'As time goes by' Casablanca just gets better and better. In the immortal words of Humphrey Bogart "Play it again, Sam".

The film was exactly as I remebered it. There is nothing better than a classic black and white film. I bought the film to project for a Casablanca theme party and everyone loved it. Lots of them had never even seen the film. What a brilliant buy! Will be keeping it for years to come.

Remember 1942 as this is when movie making peaked, Casablanca is the finest and greatest movie of all time.
There have been exceptional movies, great movies, emotional movies and superb effect movies but nothing comes any way close to Casablanca to watch this is to experience movie heaven.
It features some of the greatest performances and certainly the greatest script of all time, it leaves you wanting more you can never watch this movie too many times in fact it demands repeat viewing like no other movie
