SYNOPSIS

Colorful characters abound in Casablanca, a waiting room for Europeans trying to escape Hitler’s war-torn Europe. Humphrey Bogart plays Richard “Rick” Blaine, a cynical but good-hearted American whose café is the gathering place for everyone from the French Police to the black market to the Nazis.

When his long-lost love, Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman), surfaces in Casablanca with her Resistance leader husband, Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid), Rick is pulled into both a love triangle and a web of political intrigue. Ilsa and Victor need to escape from Casablanca, and Rick may be the only one who can help them. The question is, will he?
