Editorial Review: Product Description: Casablanca: easy to enter but much harder to leave especially if you're wanted by the Nazis. Such a man is Resistance leader Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid) whose only hope is Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) a cynical American who sticks his neck out for no one - especially Victor's wife Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) the ex-lover who broke his heart. Ilsa offers herself in exchange for Laszlo's transport out of the country and bitter Rick must decide what counts more - personal happiness or countless lives hanging in the balance. Winner of three Academy Awards including Best Picture Casablanca marks 60 years as a beloved favorite with a new digital transfer and so many bonuses that no matter how often you've seen it this Deluxe 2-Disc DVD looks like yet another beginning of a beautiful friendship with an unforgettable classic.Running Time: 102 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 012569568129 Manufacturer No: 65681 Amazon.com essential video: A truly perfect movie, the 1942 Casablanca still wows viewers today, and for good reason. Its unique story of a love triangle set against terribly high stakes in the war against a monster is sophisticated instead of outlandish, intriguing instead of garish. Humphrey Bogart plays the allegedly apolitical club owner in unoccupied French territory that is nevertheless crawling with Nazis; Ingrid Bergman is the lover who mysteriously deserted him in Paris; and Paul Heinreid is her heroic, slightly bewildered husband. Claude Rains, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Conrad Veidt are among what may be the best supporting cast in the history of Hollywood films. This is certainly among the most spirited and ennobling movies ever made. --Tom Keogh Amazon.com: A truly perfect movie, the 1942 Casablanca still wows viewers today, and for good reason.

 Rating:  - Ingrid Bergman was beautiful, but...Despite the high regard many romantics hold for this film, I find it predictable and bare-boned in its plot, as were many early films.

Rating:  - never got itNever got the movie, no response to email. I would be concerned if I had to order again from this seller. Rating:  - Simply a ClassicSimply can't go wrong with this movie. It is considered a classic and for good reason. Well staged, great music, intrigue, and plot twist. Of course first rate acting from the entire cast. This one has it all. Added features of this version are well worth any extra price. The video quality is high as well. Rating: - As Time Goes By . . .. . . This film simply gets better and better. How can it miss with such a cast? Not only Humphrey Bogart as Rick and Ingrid Bergman as Ilse, but also the ensemble group of minor characters. Who can forget oily-voiced Peter Lorre smuggling the letters of transit? Or rotund Sidney Greenstreet swatting flies at the Blue Parrot? My very favorite, however, is Claude Raines as Louis, the (lovably) corrupt Prefect of Police, whose heart is his "least vulnerable spot," and whose lines, which include "Round ...
