Overview | description: (NR) RHINO HOME VIDEO, 1942, 102 Minutes Starring: Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Conrad Veidt Director: Michael Curtiz All Movie Guide rating: One of the most beloved American films, this captivating wartime adventure of romance and intrigue from director Michael Curtiz defies standard categorization. Simply put, it is the story of Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart), a world-weary ex-freedom fighter who runs a nightclub in Casablanca during the height of WW II. Despite pressure from the local authorities, notably the crafty Capt. Renault (Claude Rains), Rick's caf� has become a haven for refugees looking to purchase illicit letters of transit which will allow them to escape to America. One day, to Rick's great surprise, he is approached by the famed rebel Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid) and his wife Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman), Rick's true love who deserted him when the Nazis invaded Paris. She still wants Victor to escape to America, but now that she's renewed her love for Rick, she wants to stay behind in Casablanca. "You must do the thinking for both of us", she says to Rick. He does, and his plan brings the story to its satisfyingly logical, if not entirely happy, conclusion. If you need to be told what happens in Casablanca's final ten minutes, you must be one of the few filmgoers left in the world who's never seen this romantic classic. -- Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide Starring Cast Humphrey Bogart: Richard "Rick" Blaine Ingrid Bergman: Ilsa Lund Laszlo Paul Henreid: Victor Laszlo Claude Rains: Capt.
