Casablanca in big screen revival
THE 70th anniversary of Casablanca provides the perfect excuse for a big-screen revival of one of the most beloved and enduring of Hollywood classics.
Humphrey Bogart’s cynical, world-weary night club owner Rick conceals his broken heart beneath a veneer of tough guy cynicism until old flame Ingrid Bergman re-enters his life.
A thrilling wartime love story seasoned with witty dialogue, wonderful character actors (Claude Rains, Peter Lorre, Sydney Greenstreet) and an unforgettable score by Max Steiner. A film that just gets better as time goes by.
