Satirises Casablanca and has some of Woody Allens cleverest lines
I don't think Casablanca is in any way Bogarts best film, and I find little salvageable from this era anyway, (tho' Fantasia was released in 1941, Chaplins The Great Dictator around that time) it seems like they're stage actors awkwardly not adapting to the screen, no "method acting" until James Deans era, 'tho Bogart has it all down pat
Good or bad, Rick's Cafe Americain has become an indelible part of popular culture
