A Great Film About Love And Regret.

Rating: 9/10 (8 May 2014)

Casablanca (1942) directed by Michael Curtiz is a gorgeous film that encompasses passion and regret.Rick and Ilsa's forbidden love during a time of tumultuous circumstances makes the movie shine. The club ran by Rick is the main setting for the movie. The sound is mesmerizing, especially the piano playing by Sam. The lighting is dark, and definitely exudes a noir quality. The scene where Rick is drinking at his bar all alone with Sam,you can see the chandeliers reflecting light. It was a nice touch to the mood of the scene. The love story is what makes the film so endearing to fans. Overall, I would give the film Casablanca (1942) a 9 out of 10.
