Casablanca :: essays research papers

The story happened during World War II. It shows how peoples lives were ruined by the Nazis. The effect that this movie had on me was not very great. As the time period that this movie was set in was during WWII, the movie is somewhat a tragic romance and how people are hard to absorb break of Casablanca which is in Morrocco which is in Africa (just in case you didnt know). No real details about WWII are given, except that the Nazi idiots were trying to rid the earth of the religions and races that they panorama were inferior. All in all, I thought it was a great movie, that should be re do with recognizable actors, and it had an awesome story line. It made me realize that among all the war and disaster during WWII, peoples lives were still progressing, however contrary they might be because of the war.The impact that this movie might have had on the Statesn society is that they got to see a reason why America was being filled by immigrants. The German racist Nazis frightened everyone out of the places they took over. And they all heard about the New World (America) and its immunity of everything, so they decided to escape Nazi occupied areas and come here. The piece of immigrants in the US rose as more and more of them fill up our boats and planes (most of them illegally).And so... here is my summary of Casablanca...Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) worked for the American Intelligence Agency in Paris. One day he met with Ilsa Laszlow (Ingrid Bergman) in Paris. They soon fell in love and planned to marry. However, with the Germans coming into Paris, they had to give up the plan and quite wished to hasten to Marseilles by train and marry there. But just forwards the leaving by train, Rick received a letter from Ilsa, verbal expression that she couldnt go with him. So instead, Rick went to the French colony Casablanca and started a coffeehouse there. One night, he met Ilsa at his cafe, who escaped with her husband to Casablanca. They hoped to obtain leave alone visas here and escape to the New World of America. At first, Rick couldnt forgive Ilsa for going back on her word. He refused to help them get the exit visas. Learning about his refusal, Ilsa goes alone to see Rick.
