--I don't remember it that long ago.
--Then will you come tonight?
- I never thought about the future.
This is a memorable line, and those who are familiar will be instantly pulled back to the tavern in Casablanca 90 years ago, thinking of the man in a long trench coat who represented an era with sad eyes.
World War II kicked off in 1942, and on this day, "Casablanca" made its debut on the big screen. In the same year, it won two Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director. A century is about to pass, and this black and white film is still admired by people. There are so many movies about World War II and love in the world. Why is "Casablanca" enduring?
There are so many towns in the world, there are so many pubs in the town, and she walked into my room
. The main story of "Casablanca" is a love triangle. The young and beautiful Ilsa and the gentle and handsome Rick met and fell in love in Paris. However, the short and happy time is always very precious. On the eve of the German occupation of Paris, Rick, who had promised to flee together, was unable to wait for Il. sa. A heartbroken Rick leaves Paris to open a tavern in Casablanca, where he unexpectedly meets Ilsa and her husband...
It's not a very complicated love story in itself, but in the context of the turbulent World War II Under this circumstance, love is coerced and forced by the hatred of the family and the country and the revolutionary mission, which has become very complicated and difficult. "Casablanca" has the unique significance of political propaganda in the context of its times, but it is also the special color of the times that makes the film no longer limited to the love and hatred of children. In the end, Rick and Ilsa settled their quarrel, and Rick put his beloved woman on the plane. It was an unexpected love, and it would end without a hitch. Although we didn't have it for a long time, at least "we will always have Paris."
A classic case of script analysis
, someone commented on Zhihu, "This movie is the best work of Michael Curtis's career. He has been in various genres in his life, and most of them have no value that will be passed down through the years. , can be regarded as the best script he has encountered."
"Casablanca" is not difficult to understand in terms of the actors' skills, the structure of the story, the interspersed pictures, and the inner expression, but it is difficult to learn. In today's film and television industry, where audience IQ is ignored, performance is too dignified, and aesthetics are increasingly fatigued, classic scripts like "Casablanca" are particularly precious, although the expressions of films from a century ago may be outdated and classics may not be repeated. But they still exist and shine.
No matter how the years go by and the time goes by, the heart that loves you will never change.
This movie also provides the world with two classic old songs "Casablanca" and "As time goes by". But it is worth noting that the real episode of the film is the jazz song "As Time Goes By". And the famous "Casablanca" did not appear in the movie. This is 40 years after the movie was released, a singer named Betty Higgins wrote, "I remember it was 1982, 'Casablanca' is a movie we love together, this love movie makes us crazy Drunk. Combined with the feeling this movie gave me, I wrote "Casablanca" for my girlfriend, she was very moved, and she agreed to my proposal and became my wife." This song sings the sadness and complexity of the movie The feelings of the singer, coupled with the singer's own story, spanned 50 years, still haunting our ears.
I fell in love with you
Watching Casablanca
Back row of the drive-in show In the back row of the drive-in
In the flickering light
Pop-corn and cokes Popcorn and Coke
Beneath the stars Under the starlight
Became champagne and caviar also seem to turn into champagne and caviar
Making love
On the long hot summer's night
I thought you fell in love with me
Watching Casablanca
Holding hands beneath the paddle fan
In Rick's candle-lit cafe
Hiding in the shadows from the spots
Moroccan moonlight in your eyes
Making magic in the movie In my old Chevrolet in my old Chevrolet doing the magic of the movie
Oh a kiss is still a kiss
In Casablanca
A kiss is not a kiss without your sigh A kiss is not a kiss without your sigh For your sigh,
please come back to me, please come back to me,
In Casablanca,
I love you more and more each
day
