2. Casablanca (1942)

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 1998)

It is considered the second greatest American movie of all time and I can see why. Casablanca is a well-directed and acted adaptation of a play. Rick is a saloon owner in the city of Casablanca in Morocco, which was under the control of the French until the Nazi's came. A women who he fell in love with comes to Casablanca and enters his bar which has him feeling upset. She had ditched him in France and he end up traveling with Sam the Piano Player. The movie portrays the Nazi's and the people who work for them in an interesting way. Ilsa Lund Laszlo claims she loves Rick but she is devoted to the cause of her Husband Victor. The movie sort of becomes a story of star-crossed lovers. The movie is both stylish and brilliant. This is a classic that well be with us forever. I give this move 5/5. Rated PG.
