We'll always have Casablanca

Rating: 10/10 (10 October 2019)

Casablanca is one of the greatest movies ever made, and I have always loved it. I love the romanticism, the fascinating setting, the acting, Bogart's world weary, cynical Rick, the unforgettable dialogue, the mix of underworld and overworld, the complex, always moving story, the occasional humor, and the interesting mix of characters. There is a lot to love, but maybe most of all I love the connection that is made between people's personal lives and struggles and the greatest battle of all time, a battle between good and evil that was raging around them.
