Film Study Guide Assignment

For the film study guide assignment, I chose the movie "Casablanca." I am so glad that I chose this movie. It is ranked #2 on the American Film Institute's Top 100 American Movies of All Time. The American Film Institute (AFI) were judged based on: length, language, critical recognition, awards, popularity, historical significance, and cultural impact. The 1942 film, starring Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart, was set during World War II.

Quotes like: "Play it again, Sam," "Here's to lookin at you, kid," and "I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship" are often recited, but I have never been able to recognize them. Thanks to this assignment, I will now be able to recognize the amous quotes that come from this movies. Also, I have always liked the song "As Time Goes By," but now I love it because it is a little more personal!

I would HIGHLY recommend watching "Casablanca" the very first chance you get!
