      Casablanca--Some Classic Lines From The Movie

      I guess our love story will never be seen on the big wide silver screen, but it hurt just as badly when I had to watch you go.

      I think our story will never appear on the screen, but when I look at you leaving, my heart is as painful as ever.

      I thought Hepburn was the most beautiful

      I thought Hepburn was the most beautiful. "Casablanca" Bergman just appeared on the scene, they will be judged. Hepburn made "Roman Holiday" with a face, Bergman made "Casablanca" with just one pair of eyes. If Hepburn is Liu Yifei, Bergman is Li Ruotong. If Hepburn is Andy Lau, Bergman is Tony Leung. One smart, one deep. If you were on the road and glanced at by Hepburn, you would say hi to her; but if you were glanced at by Bergman, you would lose all calm in an...

      Movies that you want to watch because of the title of the movie are sometimes not very powerful

      To be honest, it was a little hard to start watching this movie, but when you finish it, the outline of the story emerges completely. A man who seems to have a story opens a successful bar in a far-off, exotic town. He is neutral, ruthless, and has a hidden "emotional" potential. When the heroine appeared, the black friend warned her to leave, saying that he would only cause trouble for Rick, which I don't understand. Their previous stories are not enough to lead to such a conclusion. After the...

      never forget, once owned

      When the shadow of the plane leaving only a faint black spot on the horizon, Rick finally calmed down. There was sadness in his eyes. Let go of love because of love, maybe, he will be very reluctant to give up.

       

          In the last scene of "Casablanca", Rick gave Ilsa and Russ the exit card and helped them leave Casablanca safely. I think he must have had a long struggle in his heart at that time. Said: "He needs you, you go with him." I was very moved. What a wise, calm man to...

      The advent of what love is? Directly teach life and death

      Rick has always maintained a role of waiting, watching and guarding. A brief encounter in Paris was supposed to be just a dewy love, but he engraved it in his heart, and would rather let it turn into an untouchable pain than choose to forget it. The train station in the rain, the lost figure, has become an irresistible resentment in the slow fermentation of time. So, when the familiar music sounded again, and those eyes that had been described countless times in the dream and looked forward to...

    Behind the scenes gags

    Because director Michael Curtis’s Hungarian accent is very heavy, he made a lot of unrelated jokes during the filming.
    Ingrid Bergman thinks that her left profile is more perfect, so most of her shots in the film are shot on the left.
    Some of the actors who played the Nazis in the film were Jews who had escaped from....

    Role selection

    Before the filming of the film, Hal Wallace had considered letting Heidi Lamarr play the role of Ilsa, but because she was a contracted artist of MGM, the company did not want her to play this role. Di Lamar also didn't want to risk participating in a film whose script was not yet complete. In 1942, Warner Bros. asked Ronald Reagan and Ann Sheridan to play the leading roles in the film. However, due to script problems, both of them...

    Shooting process

    Due to the shortage of resources during the war, most of the scenes in the film used Warner’s old venue, and only Rick’s cafe was a set set specially for this film. Because the film was shot during World War II, it was not allowed to shoot at the airport after dark for safety reasons, so the crew changed to shooting in a studio. The image of the airplane was made of cardboard, and in order to make the cardboard airplane reflect the...
