Of all the gin joints,
in all the towns,
in all the world,
she walks into mine.

Heading the list of The American Film Institute’s Top American Films Of All Time, “Casablanca” with Max Steiner’s Academy Award-nominated score captures an intriguing love story with both humor and enormous dramatic effect supported by the compelling themes of “As Time Goes By” and “La Marseillaise”. And “you must remember this”, Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart are unforgettable!
