Episode 400 - Casablanca
Manage episode 442467957 series 2794854
In World War II Casablanca, Rick Blaine runs the city's hottest nightspot. Cynical and solitary, he comes into possession of two valuable letters of transit. When a Nazi Major arrives, the opportunistic Captain Renault goes out of his way to appease him, even detaining Czech underground leader Victor Laszlo who shows up with Rick's former love, Ilsa. Bitter over Ilsa's betrayal in Paris, Rick is conflicted, but when he learns her reasons, they plot to escape together using the letters of transit—though their plan may not unfold as expected.
Craig and Alan discuss the great Humphrey Bogart, timeless stories, our favorite past episodes and the all time classic “Casablanca” on this 400th episode of Matinee Heroes!
