The most inspiringmovie of all time. Combines humor with romance and suspense. Reflects the time period well. There's no wonder it is the origin of many famous quotes.

Casablanca: an American movie classic best viewed in the original black and white. Story based in the setting of World War II, as people escape from France as the Nazis move in. Story also follows two lovers who meet in Morocco again, one already established in Morocco as a nightclub owner, the other escaping the Nazis with her husband. The plot becomes interesting when the nightclub owner meets his love again, a love the husband never knew about. But the nightclub owner, despite his love and bitterness, is their only way out. Strongly recommended for those who like stories of found love, lost love and love found again.

This movie is great for many reasons. Many of the things that make this movie great don't stand out very well by today's standards. But, if you look at the time it was made, this movie truly shines. First, one of the main characters is black. He is one of the heroes of the movie. And this is in a movie with one of the greatest actors of the era, Humphrey Bogart. Also, other than Sam, the intentions of the other characters are all rather ambiguous. One moment you'll see Bogie handing his friend over to the Nazis, next he's smuggling Polish rebels to American. The good guys aren't so good, the bad guys aren't so bad, and some you just can't tell. There were no shining heroes or slimy villians, just the gray that occupies the large space between them. In an era where all the heroes had to be pure, this movie went against the grain.

One of the best films ever made. The technology used in filming was revolutionary at the time. Beautiful performances by Bogart and Bergman. The film is well put together and enjoyable.

Sacrifice is part of love.

One of my favorite, definitely my favorite classic film. The love between Bogart and Bergman is truly unique and the dialogue is without equal. There are a number of great scenes, particularly the last. This movie more than lives up to its reputation.

An obvious classic. Great acting. Too much smoking. Good lines like "Here's looking at you kid." I enjoy watching this movie.

Casablanca- the ultimate classic. Great photography, great story line, great acting, great music- much unlike any contemporary American film.
