The film "Casablanca" has long been famous and has never had the opportunity to enjoy it. I got a CD a few days ago and got my wish. It has been 65 years since the film was shot in 1942, but the film still has a touching artistic charm, which makes me a movie fan greatly satisfied.
The story of the film is relatively simple. An American named Rick is wanted by the German Nazis in France for his anti-Nazi activities. When Paris is about to be captured by the German army, he and his beloved Ilsa make an appointment to meet at the train station. They fled France together by car, but Ilsa missed her appointment and disappeared. Afterwards, Rick moved to Casablanca, a port city in Morocco, a North African colony, where he opened a nightclub and became the owner. At that time, Casablanca was the only air passage from Europe to the Americas, and a special pass was required to leave the city. The local resistance organization assassinated the German secret messenger and got two special passes, and sent a liaison to the nightclub to contact Viktor, the leader of the Czech resistance organization, and sent a special pass. Give the pass to Rick. Not long afterward, Victor and his wife Ilsa came to the nightclub without seeing the liaison. They learned through secret investigation that the special pass was in Rick's hands. The couple asked Rick for a pass and flew to the United States to escape the German Nazis. . Rick sees Ilsa's love-hate relationship and rejects Victor's request. Ilsa finds an opportunity to tell Rick the reason for the missed appointment in Paris. It turned out that Ilsa's husband was arrested by the German Nazis, imprisoned in a concentration camp, and also spread the news of being killed. In this lonely and sad situation, he met Rick, had a relationship with Rick, and had a romance with Rick. night of. Just when she was going to meet Rick at the Paris train station, a friend heard news that her husband had been rescued and was seriously ill. Ilsa did not rush to tell Rick, so she went with her friend to find her husband. Rick was very moved after hearing this, and fell in love with Ilsa even more. Rick overcame many difficulties to kill the Nazi spy chief and put Victor and Ilsa on the plane.
The film's leading actors, Bogart and Bergman, conquered the audience with their excellent acting skills, and the protagonists' love, sense of justice, and masculinity touched us. Filmed in 1942 at the height of World War II in Europe, it must have been a sensation. After 65 years, it is still full of vitality, and the flower of art will last forever. I hope that Chinese films will learn more from excellent foreign films, and produce more excellent works, so as to create masterpieces handed down to the generations.
