rating- 6/10

The Eyeline match was great, and the love between rick and ilsa was very distinct. mise en scene including costume (i absolutely loved ilsas costumes!) and composition of pictures were okay however i think camera work couldve been more extravagant to enhance emotions. storyline was good however confusing at times.

I think this film had a good romantic narrative however for me it was difficult to go along with the story as alot was happening.

My memorable scene would be the scene where Sam plays the piano song for Ilsa as this song is Ilsa and Ricks song so it’s an emotional scene for her and brings back her memories that takes the audience with her.

Casablanca First Response

Score: 8/10

Memorable Scene: When Rick reveals to Ilsa he won’t leave Casablanca with her and Victor. I found this memorable as it shows what Rick is willing to do in order to ensure that Ilsa is safe, even if he’s not with her.

I’d give this film a 5/10

I liked the film, and a lot of shots were very well done and flowed very well, however I found the story very all over the place, and few times actually grabbing my attention.

This is an iconic shot for me as this really brings the audience outside of the gloomy reality they live in, and into this fantastical romance, and its composed so they are in the centre and we focus just on them, nothing else.

a memorable scene for me was when they were battling over each other in the bar with the music, which showed people uniting with excitement and emotion which was a much needed shift in tone.

I think that Casablanca was overall 4/10. It had good qualities such as good musical score, set design and sound effects. It also looked very good for its time. However i thought the film was slow paced and boring at times. Nothing major happened until the second half of the film. A memorable scene of the movie is when Rick pulls a gun on the officer as it is a shock to the audience.
