Casablanca

Rating: Null/10 (18 December 2015)

After watching the film, one can definitely see why it is such a popular piece film history. There are so many connections to be made between what was going on in the world at that point in history and the plot of the film, it is actually quite entertaining just to make them. However, it is aspects such as the lighting and acting that make this film what it is. The lighting has an awesome contrast of lights and darks, getting very far at times when the plot is at its most dramatic scenes and vice versa. I found it very interesting how each of the characters sort of represents their respected countries and cultures, the actors do a great job of portraying what it meant to be French, American, or German at that time. I really enjoyed this film, as will anyone who loves film and has yet to see the American cinematic masterpieces that is Casablanca.
