I’m doing a once a decade re-watch of the melancholy of Suzumia Haruhi but in between that and also to help break up the Endless Eight, I decided to watch Casablanca for the first time, and I was honestly kind of stunned.
I’m recuperating from surgery so I wasn’t able to stay awake for the whole movie but the parts that I got showed a very vibrant background with lots of people all doing their own thing and like the communications were just vignettes of two people’s conversations interspersed over this rambling morass of background.
Didn’t much care for the movie. I thought the actors were not very believable for who they were supposed to be, maybe I slept through it, but I couldn’t identify anyone’s motivation for doing anything in the entire movie other than getting away from Casablanca.
But the ambiance? 10/10. Truly a vibrant movie, even if I didn’t much care for the storyline.
