Casablanca: here’s looking at you


Well there’s a reputation well earned: Casablanca is one of the best films I’ve seen recently. I know it’s been out for a while (it was released in 1942) but I only bought the DVD last weekend. Great cast (Bogart as cool as a three-star freezer), strong script (Bergman torn between the two loves of her life, and then some WWII thrown in), and superb dialogues.

Captain Renault : What in heaven’s name brought you to Casablanca?
Rick : My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters.
Captain Renault : The waters? What waters? We’re in the desert.
Rick : I was misinformed.

    Major Strasser : You give him credit for too much cleverness. My impression was that he’s just another blundering American.
    Captain Renault : We musn’t underestimate American blundering. I was with them when they blundered into Berlin in 1918.
