The movie Casablanca was about a man named Rick who owned his own café in Casablanca, Morocco. He is living there for a while when an old lover from France goes there. Her name is Ilsa. Ilsa is married to a man named Victor Laszlo when she comes to Casablanca. Victor is known for his patriotism. He has escaped from German concentration camps twice. Victor found some letters that would let him and his wife fly out of Casablanca and go to the U.S. Rick gets a hold of these letters and has to make a decision weather to give them to Victor and Ilsa or to keep them for himself and fly out with Ilsa. In the end he decides to give them to Victor and Ilsa.

They talk about what happened in Paris when she decided to stay. He learns a lot about what happened and realizes what he has to do. He used his head on this one to put the pieces together.

He picks up the phone and is about to call someone when Rick shoots him. He showed his hard-boiled character here because he would not shoot someone just to shoot them but he did it to save Ilsa and Victor. Captain Renault also helped him out by lying about it. The Captain also showed some hard-boil...
