Sequence 7
17 Before watching:
Read the following passage from the review of the film Casablanca and an-
swer the questions:
In the final assessment, the myth and the continuing popularity of the film
rest on the fact that it embodies human values that are far more attractive to
the general public than to intellectual critics. It is about love that may involve
self-sacrifice, being willing to fight for what one believes in, and the idea that
being independent and making your own choices involves a sense of respon-
sibility. If these things are now considered romantic, sentimental, old-
fashioned, so much the worse for our generation.
Why is the film Casablanca still popular?
Do you think that human values mentioned in the review are sentimental
and old-fashioned?
Think of synonyms for the italicized words.

script yourselves.
RICK'S CAFE – MAIN ROOM – NIGHT
Close-up of a glass on the table in the
cafe. Rick's hand reaches for it and
knocks it over. We now see Rick's face

Sam walks over to the table to pick up the glass and a fallen chair.
Just then the door opens and it's Ilsa. Rick stares at the doorway. Ilsa lingers a
moment, then comes over to the table.
19 After watching:
Re-enact the confrontation scene between the two and complete Ilsa's story
inventing "a wow finish" to it.
