What story does Casablanca tell?

Appreciation In 1942, Warner Bros. invited Ronald Reagan (later President Reagan) and Ann Xie Lidan to play the leading roles in a World War II film.

Bergman, the heroine of Casablanca

Later, due to the rough script, both of them quit the cast and were replaced by Bergman and Bogart. The two men successfully described the touching story that happened during the war. Although the script has been changed again and again, Bergman and Bogart's performances are unforgettable. That once considered the worst play became the blueprint for Hollywood's immortal business card. Casablanca won three Academy Awards-best film, best director and best screenplay.

Synopsis The story happened in World War II in North Africa, and it surrendered to french morocco, a remote northern city, Casablanca.

the city suddenly became lively. People come here from European countries under the fascist iron hoof, because they can get exit passports here and go to the United States via Lisbon. However, exit passports are extremely expensive. In order to leave the country, tragedies happen here every day.

Soon, a plane landed in Casablanca with Major Strass, the head of the German secret police, hazily. Captain Renault, the local French police chief, went to meet him. It turned out that not long ago, two German messengers were killed and two passes issued by German marshals were taken away. Strass's visit is to pursue this matter, and there is also a more important task: to follow a leader of the Czech left-wing movement-Victor Laszlo.

Renault reports to Major Straus that the murderer has been found out and he will be arrested in public in a hotel tonight. Strasbourg ordered Renault never to make Laszlo leave Casablanca, which was the most important thing for the German government.

The luxurious Rick Hotel in Casablanca. Customers are crowded, Europeans, Africans and Turks in Asia. Sam, a black musician, sat in front of the piano, playing and singing. The center of discussion among pleasure seekers is still the passport. A beautiful woman said, "I used to want a villa in Cannes, but now I just want an exit passport." A man replied, "I can't get a passport, so I have to die in Casablanca." Only Rick, the owner of the restaurant, looked so cool and indifferent, sitting alone at the table.

Jugat, a scalper who sells exit passports, came to the hotel and took out an envelope containing two passes, asking Rick to keep it for him. He told Rick that he killed two German messengers. Sell it out today, make a fortune, and he will leave here. Although Rick didn't like the man, he acquiesced in his leaving his pass in the piano that Sam was still playing.

as soon as ugarte left, Renault came. He told Rick that Laszlo had come to Casablanca and asked Rick not to be an emotionalist. Straus knew that Rick had participated in anti-fascist wars in Europe and North Africa. He wants Rick to stand on Germany's side this time and stop Laszlo from leaving here for America. Rick refused: "Your occupation is politics, and mine is running a hotel."

ugarte was quickly captured and killed by an ambush police, but the two passports were not found on him.

Laszlo and his wife Ilsa walk into the hotel. Ilsa found that Sam, who was playing the piano, looked at him carefully for a while before looking back. A man followed, and under the cover of asking Laszlo to buy a ring, he connected with Laszlo and agreed on a meeting place. Then, Straus and Renault also came to their table. Laszlo refused to talk to Strado, so Renault had to invite him to a police station in the name of the local police station.

After the two men left, Laszlo should make an appointment with the ring seller, knowing that Jugat was dead and his passport was hopeless.

Ilsa stayed alone in the dining room, listening to Sam playing the piano. Finally, I made up my mind to greet Sam. Sam didn't expect to meet Ilsa here. At the request of Ilsa, Sam and Ilsa played and sang "Time flies" together.

Suddenly, Sam's piano stopped. It turned out that Rick heard the song and his face suddenly changed.

late at night, all the customers have left. Sam gently played "Time flies", and Rick fell into the past ... Paris, Rick and Ilsa snuggled up, in the street, in the steamboat of the Seine, in the luxurious hotel. Rick smiled happily: Why am I so lucky to meet you? Ilsa told Rick that she once loved a man, but he died. Later, she met Rick and fell in love with him.

a propaganda car interrupted the lovers' whispering. The German army is advancing on Paris and will occupy Paris in a few days.

In the hotel, Sam is playing "Time flies" on the piano, and the loudspeakers in the street are broadcasting the noise of the Gestapo. Sam and Ilsa knew that Rick was the target of the German Nazis' reward, and advised him to leave Paris at once. Rick suggested that the three of them go together. It was agreed to meet at the railway station. When they parted, Ilsa told Rick that she loved him very much no matter what.

In front of the railway station, Rick waited anxiously for Ilsa in the storm. Sam came and gave Rick a letter from Ilsa. Rick couldn't wait to open it. The letter said, "I can't go with you, and I can't see you again. You must not ask why, just believe that I love you." Raindrops hit the stationery, and the handwriting was blurred ...

When Ilsa appeared again in front of Rick who was recalling the past, Rick said coldly, "We have closed."

Ilsa wants to talk to Rick, but Rick asks her why she came to Casablanca and tells her that her heart has been kicked by high heels. Ilsa wanted to explain, but Rick didn't want to hear it.

Laszlo and Ilsa were invited to the police station, and Strasbourg asked Laszlo to give up the leaders of underground resistance organizations in European countries. Laszlo answered cleverly: "In a concentration camp."

Laszlo and Ilsa find Flary, a prominent figure in the black market, and want to spend money to buy two passports. Flary told them that they could only sell one, because Laszlo was controlled by the German authorities, and no one dared to sell him a passport. Flary also told them that the two special passes of Jugat were estimated to be in Rick's place, and suggested that Laszlo go to Rick for help.

but Rick is very cold. Laszlo asked him why, and Rick asked him to ask his wife.

While talking, the Germans in the hotel sang fascist military songs. Laszlo went to the front of the band to conduct the Marseillaise, and everyone around him began to sing, suppressing the German singing. Strass was furious and ordered Renault to seal up Rick's hotel immediately.

In the evening, Ilsa came to Rick again and asked him to hand over his pass, but Rick refused. Ilsa asked him again with old feelings, but he still ignored him.

Ilsa had no choice but to pull out his pistol. Rick took out his pass, but said that he could only do it if he was shot. The gun in Ilsa's hand fell. She confided to Rick the reason why she left him at that time.

It turns out that Laszlo is Ilsa's husband. After three weeks of marriage, Laszlo went to Prague. Soon, news came that he was arrested and died. Later, she met Rick and fell in love. But just as she was leaving Paris with Rick and Sam, before going to the train station, she suddenly got a call from Laszlo's friend, saying that Laszlo was still alive, and just outside Paris, he was sick. Although she loves Rick, she can't leave Laszlo alone.

Rick understood everything and decided to help Laszlo.

Renault decided to arrest Laszlo because he attended a secret meeting. Rick gave him advice when he found out, and then arrested Laszlo after he got the pass. So Renault can kill two birds with one stone, and Rick can take the beautiful Ilsa to America. Renault agreed.

Laszlo arrived at the hotel a few minutes before the plane took off and got his pass. He wanted to give Rick 1, francs, but Rick didn't want it, saying he needed it to go to America. Just then, Renault suddenly appeared and announced the arrest of Laszlo. Laszlo was surprised, but Rick took out a pistol and pointed it at Renault, asking him to call the airport and let Laszlo and Ilsa go.

Renault called the German consulate. Although it was inconvenient to explain clearly, Strass realized that something was wrong and took the police straight to the airport.

Rick forced Renault to sign the names of Laszlo and Ilsa on the pass, but Renault and Ilsa were surprised. Rick said to Ilsa, "We will always remember Paris. Our sweet memory disappeared before you came to Casablanca, and we got it back last night. "

the motor of the plane started. Strass rushed into the hotel. When he knew Laszlo had boarded the plane, he tried to call to stop the plane from taking off.

Rick held a gun against him, and they got into a fight. Just as Straus grabbed the telephone, Rick's gun rang and killed Straus. Two gendarmes heard gunshots and rushed in. Renault, as a party, knew he couldn't get away with it, so he had a brainwave and ordered the gendarmerie to arrest all the usual suspects.

the plane flew away. Renault said to Rick, "You are not only an emotionalist, but also a patriot." Rick said it was a good time to start over. Renault advised Rick to leave Casablanca, take shelter elsewhere, arrange transportation for him, and said he would go with him.
