"Casablanca"

I enjoyed the movie, "Casablanca" first of all because it was an olden time, black and white film, with a great romantic twist. The film had great mystery and a romantic love triangle that made me jump to conclusions about who Ilsa would choose--Rick or Laszlo. The ending was a sad one for me because I was hoping Ilsa would stay with Rick or that Rick would secretly trick Laszlo into going on the plane and leaving Ilsa for himself.

I liked the article, "Casablanca" because it gave lots of insight on the background of the film which I thought was very interesting. It was neat to read that the writer Burnett thought of the movie by vacationing with his wife in Vienna.

I wasn't too fond of the article, "Playing it Again and Again" because it gave too much information about the film such as quotes and awards it received. Although it was interesting to read that the movie was released a year after the U.S. entered World War II and also that film was ranked second for the century.

I think the movie has been so highly acclaimed because of the film's acting, script, and musical attributes in the early 1940's.
