Casablanca (Snap Case)

Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Conrad Veidt
i enjoyed Casablanca,but i wouldn't say it changed my life.it's a
pleasant movie,with a good story,good acting,a good locale and an
interesting cast of characters.there are some memorable lines,to be
sure,but some of them some seem a bit corny.there were one or two eye
rolling sentimental lines delivered by Humprey Bogart to Ingred
Bergman.but i realize that's probably due to the fact that the movie
was made almost 60 years ago.regardless,it's well worth watching,in my .

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Restored Authorized Edition)

Werner Krauss, Conrad Veidt, Friedrich Feher, Lil Dagover, Hans Heinrich von Twardowski
One of the first silent films I ever saw (and still a personal favorite) this film proved to me that silents can have as much visual presence and atmosphere as more recent films. I've been a big fan of German expressionism ever since. The odd angular sets and liberal use of shadows create a world that correspondingly odd characters live in: a killer Somnambulist, a madman of the fairgrounds, not to mention the inhabitants of an insane asylum. The plot is by no means straightforward. The players have such skewed psyches, a fact which only becomes more obvious during the progression of the film.

The Thief of Bagdad - Criterion Collection

Sabu, Conrad Veidt, Rex Ingram, Miki Hood, Allan Jeayes
What a marvelous classic. And with Sabu as the thief, Conrad Veidt as the scheming sorcerer/villian and Rex Ingram as the genie no less. Although the "special effects" are laughably primitive by todays standards, they work and only add to the charm of this wonderful fantasy/adventure. Many of the scenes have a dream like appearance that is most memorable. June Duprez is ravashing as the heroine and John Justin shines as the handsome dethroned king and her heroic suitor.
