Everybody comes to Rick's -- Usual suspects -- I stick my neck out for nobody -- Such much? -- We'll always have Paris -- Play it again -- A beautiful friendship.
"Through ... research and interviews with filmmakers, film critics, family members of the cast and crew, and diehard fans, Isenberg reveals the myths and realities behind Casablanca's production, exploring the transformation of the unproduced stage play into the classic screenplay, the controversial casting decisions, the battles with Production Code censors, and the effect of the war's progress on the movie's reception. Isenberg particularly focuses on the central role refugees from Hitler's Europe played in the production (nearly all of the actors and actresses cast in Casablanca were immigrants)"--Dust jacket flap.
