Play it again, Sam

I habitually buy Lawrence Bullock's Elegance Thieves series, and buy one copy for each one. The latest one is called "The Thief Who Thinks It's Bogart". The cases written in the book are getting more and more boring. Those who turn over and over are all the old-fashioned, just like missing an old friend, wanting to know what Rodden Barr* Bernie is doing recently-do second-hand bookstores make money? Have you met any weird customers again? What are you going to steal this time? In short, it is his life and love.
In this book, Bernie fell in love with Bogart and Humphrey Bogart. A thief who likes Bogart, really, I can't dislike him.
This time the thief met his true destiny, "There are so many cities in the world, and there are so many old bookstores in the cities, but she just walked into mine." They watched the Bogart film tour at the Art Festival together. Falling in love... he said, "But I once slept with you and then lost you, I don't want to experience it again. Once is a good memory, twice is a broken heart." This tone is Bogart's tone, that is Casablanca. The tone of the bar owner Rick.
By the way, a long time ago, I mean, in the 1990s, I watched "Casablanca" for the first time on the CCTV movie channel. This movie is so famous that when I was young, I was ashamed to tell people that I hadn't watched it. I saw the name on the TV news program list and remembered the time channel. That night, she sent a girl home. She said to accompany me to sit for a while. I said no, I had to go back to the movie. Later, when I watched less than half of the movie, I already regretted the wrong choice.
I don't know what's so good about this movie. At that time I was still young.
Time goes to this century. One night I was drunk and couldn't sleep, so I just took a disc and put it into the player, it was "Casablanca". I think it was because of the wine that my eyes became moist afterwards. I wanted to be hypnotized, but I became more and more awake, so I found a bottle of red wine to drink, and looked at this butterfly over and over.
During that time, I and Rick had similar knots. Almost every line could hit my heart, "Bang", ten ring:
Remember, my gun was aimed at your heart.
That is where I am least afraid of injury.
——Where did
you go last night? Why don't you come to me?
I don't remember anything that happened so long ago.
Will you come tonight?
I don't want to be so far in the future.
-
Rick, you come to Casa Blanc Why?
for health. I'm here for water.
water? What water? We are a desert here.
I made a mistake.
-
Mr. Rick, is your nationality?
I am an alcoholic.

From that night I liked Bogart, this never seems to get old the young man had always assumed a "heart bruised so I so cynical heart of stone how about you have the ability to impress me ... …"'S stinky face. This year is the 70th anniversary of "Casablanca" and the 30th anniversary of Ingrid Bergman, but I prefer Bogart. Warner is going to release a limited edition Blu-ray, I will buy it and watch it again. But I haven't been able to watch all his dozens of movies like Rodden Barberney. I still don't like it that much...or I'm not as affectionate as Bernie.
Bernie finally regarded himself as Bogart, rather than Rick, who played Bogart, and sent away his beloved woman. "You are really a hopeless romantic," Caroline said. "Bogart is great on the screen, but those noble losers have no way out in real life."
Noble losers hehe. Many people are losers, but no one can lose noble. Caroline is a pet groomer, a lesbian, and Bernie's all-talking friend. I really want to have friends like that.
By the way, I don’t know why, I can’t remember the song “As time goes by” sung by Sam in the movie. I only remember the song written by Bate Higgins for his wife for the next 40 years. The song "Casablanca"-most people will remember this.
But I still remember Ilsa’s words, "Play it again, Sam, look at the sentiments of the past, play it again."

    In the future, we wait, wait, and wait. Past, present, and future, we will always have Paris.

    Is it that good-looking? Except Ingri Bergman.

Casablanca quotes

  • [denying an official of the German National Bank entrance to the casino]

    Rick: Your cash is good at the bar.

    Banker: What? Do you know who I am?

    Rick: I do. You're lucky the *bar's* open to you.

  • Woman: What makes saloonkeepers so snobbish?

    Banker: Perhaps if you told him I ran the second largest banking house in Amsterdam.

    Carl: Second largest? That wouldn't impress Rick. The leading banker in Amsterdam is now the pastry chef in our kitchen.

    Banker: We have something to look forward to.
