Here's Looking at You, Kid

Saw the last part of Casablanca last night. One of the perfect movies. The stories surrounding it are just as interesting as the movie itself. We think we know that Ronald Reagan was up for the role of Rick, but according to some sources, he was not and that was merely a publicity stunt at the time to keep Ronnie's name in the press. They (the movie-maker people) didn't know until very near the end of shooting whether Ilsa would stay with Rick or leave with Laszlo. The very last line was thought up by the producer after filming was complete and was dubbed by Bogart later on.

It's one of the most quoted films of all time, with such gems as:

Here's looking at you, kid.

Louie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship [this is the line dubbed by Bogart].

Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.

Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine.

Well there are certain sections of New York, Major , that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade. [Rick is talking to the German Major after the Major talks about invading the U.S.]
