Casablanca is a well written romantic drama

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2014)

Casablanca is a film that goes much deeper than suspected. The world history behind the story is fascinating! Humphrey Bogart does a great job, he captures the surprise along with the resentment upon meeting his past lover played by Ingrid Bergman. The films themes are very patriotic and romantic. The tension between the waring parties makes for great scenes like the battle of the national anthems between the German soldiers and the French people living in Casablanca. The photography is dark and brooding. The lamps within the club cast fantastic shadows across the walls. Casablanca is a romantic classic that stands the test of time.
