A film that will probably always be heralded as a classic. Likeable enough, I can't confess to being blown away by it, but it is easy to see why it's been loved by so many over the years.
Set in WWII in the titular* city in Morocco, it follows the love between the dashing Humphrey Bogart and the utterly stunning Ingrid Bergman. "Bogey" is a delight to watch, spouting out classic line after classic line - it's a bit like an armchair trip to the National Gallery seeing paintings you've only ever seen in books. Bergman is great too - Here's lookin' at you, Kid.

Yes OB an absolute classic in every way. I've always had a soft spot for Humphrey Bogart. I also love his peformance in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and Angels with Dirty Faces , prob could go on all night listing the films I love that he's made got his biography if you want to borrow it _________________ http://www.withintheshadowofthetree.com/

That would be cool...I was recently told he was 43 before he'd made the big time. Still hope for me
