Review: Casablanca

Achingly romantic second world war drama that still has new things to reveal even after watching it more than a dozen times. This time I was struck by the grim wit coming from the mouths of the supporting cast.

Despite being a black and white movie from the 1940s, it has an ageless quality. There's no fat in any of the scenes. Even lines and scenes which seem to be superfluous initially, pay off later. The cast are superb.


Verdict: Ageless classic.
