- Description
Casablanca: the way there is easy, but the way back is not. Especially if you're one of those in the Nazis' crosshairs. The most wanted is the Czech resistance leader Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid), who puts his hopes in the hands of the cynical American Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart). But he won't stick his neck out for anyone. For no one except Victor's wife Ilsa, the former lover who broke his heart.
When Ilsa offers herself to him in exchange for her husband's safe passage out of the country, a bitter Rick must decide what's more important to him-his happiness or people's lives. Casablanca won three Academy Awards, including Best Picture...
