I know a LOT has been put out there about this movie! Books have been written, documentaries have been made, college classes have even been taught about it! The movie itself is pretty much--- at nearly 80 years old (!!!)--- an American treasure / institution! But, like most ALL of what I post up here at the 'ol bloggie-wogga-doodle-dang-thang, this here is just a collection of my personal thoughts and takes on what makes this such a GREAT film!
By-the-way---for those of you (all 1 or 2 of you!) that have the 'burning question' in your mind: How can a fan of super heroes and Sci-Fi (like the Loydster!) also be such a GEEK about old black & white flicks like this one? Well.... you can at least PARTLY blame my mom!
Classic films (like 'Casablanca', and numerous others!) were something my mom LOVED to watch, over and over! I guess she passed that affection for this kind of entertainment--- as well as the love of some of the GREAT artists / actors from 'Hollywood's Golden Age'--- on down to me! (Of course, mom also REALLY liked old 'singing cowboy' movies and CHEESY musicals! I didn't pick up her love for any of that stuff, needless to say! So it isn't all 'genetics' or 'in my DNA'!)
So, enough with the introduction-type-jazz!!!..... Go on ahead and do the usual 'pointing-and-clicking' down below the 'classic mic image' down yonder, to listen / down-load!-----
'Casablanca' blab-session!
Just for 'grins-and-giggles,' AND--the FUN of it--- and because, like I've said here before-- they just DO NOT make nifty movie-trailers like this anymore in Hollywood! I'm putting up the trailer for this CLASSIC film once again!----
AND---- here's that 'important announcement' that you were warned about, earlier in the month!----
---(point-and-click below, once again!)---
----Stay safe, sane, and happy 'til NEXT month gang!----
