Comment
Casabalnca is one of the greatest films ever made. During World War 2, Humphrey Bogart is running a bar in Casablanca when his ex-girl friend (Ingrid Bergman) arrivies with her notorious husband looking for an exit visa to get them to America. This has great performances from Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman, with some of the best on-screen chemistry on film. The film is full of now famous quotes, including the one not actually in the film (Play it again Sam). Although this was made in the 1940's it has not dated and still stands as one of the landmark films.
