..... "As Time Goes By" Dooley Wilson Casablanca - 1942 .....
My Favorite.... MOVIE Casablanca Humphrey Bogart was certainly not the worlds greatest actor, but its hard to imagine anyone else playing Rick Blaine, the outwardly cynical and inwardly hurting hero of Casablanca. Every word Bogart utters, and every glance he takes, drips with pain, regret, yet fortitude to continue on the painful path he has chosen.
Casablanca is a classic tale of lost love found again and then put at risk of being lost once and for all. Rick is our hero, and his lost love is the stunningly beautiful Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman). Its the Second World War, and the Nazis dominate Europe. Tens of thousands of refugees have fled the German onslaught, many passing through Casablanca, Morocco, on their way to America. Casablanca is halfway between two worlds controlled by Occupied France, but frequented by enemies of the Third Reich.
