Book: "We'll Always Have Casablanca"

I just finished reading a good book about a great movie:  We'll Always Have Casablanca: The Life, Legend, and Afterlife of Hollywood's Most Beloved Movie, by Noah Isenberg (W.W. Norton & Company, 2017).

All the great lines from the movie are there, along with some fascinating bits like this one:  Of some 150 professional people—cast and crew—15 were American-born.  Many of the rest were refugees from Nazi Germany, and some of those acted in roles of Nazis they hated.

Now I want to go see the movie again.


The Sacramento Public Library has several copies of the book.
