Here's Looking at You, Kid

Bogart & Bergman - Airport Scene (Casablanca, 1942)


Today is Ingrid Bergman's birthday (as are that of Charlie "Bird" Parker and Dinah Washington).

The final scene from Casablanca has many memorable lines. These lines are crisp and fresh today as they were first written in 1942. Alas, they don't write thes kind of movie dialogs anymore. If one were a classic movie fans, one would understand my sentiments.

If you are a Casablanca fan as I am, and happened to fall into this rabbit hole of a post, perhaps you could indulge me.

Click on Lenvoi's Music Selection (This MP3 Selection Expired) to play the airport finale audio clip from Casablanca. Be warned. It's over six minutes long. If you elect to suffer this indignation, you might as well brave the following question:

If you must choose a spoken line from this audio clip, which would you choose? Choose only one line and submit your selection as comments. Explanation is welcome, but not necessary.

I will entertain this movie trivia for two or three days. After which, I will post my favorite line from this scene.
