Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì Casablanca—WOW! classic movie—exemplifies the importance of high quality writers in building good movies. The portrayal and presentation run from great to good. Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman show extremely well in close facial shots. The film may get a little slow at times but that does not hinder the overall feel of the film and the 'take-home' satiation that money and time are well invested in viewing this movie. This film is in black and white but that adds to the quality of the film. The camera work is exceptional as it optimizes the sense of suspense and emotion with excellent timing. Storyline Additional Thanks Thank you to Director Michael Curtiz for directing effort. Thank you to Executive Producer Jack L. Warner, and Producer Hal B. Wallis for making the film possible. Cast includes Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Conrad Veidt, Sydney Greenstreet, and Peter Lorre. Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe? Yes. It is a B-grade film but it works for its money by telling a creative, high quality story. Video Critique Available Here: Ben Meyers |
