I'm devastated. I so much prefer the Hollywood version.

My favourite film

And mine.

Believe it or not I'd never actually watched the whole film (I'd seen most of it in bits and pieces) until we stopped there on Vistafjord's final voyage in 1999 and they showed the film on board. They had someone who'd worked on the film as a speaker. So here's an interesting trivia question for all you experts. What colour was Rick's tuxedo?

I suppose he's going to,say it was lilac or duck egg blue or some such.😀

Close.

 

Apparently it was made on a very tight budget and the studio couldn’t resist a deal on a truckload of canary yellow tuxedos that they were assured would look white on (black and white) film.

Apparently Warners were such a tight-fisted studio that the actors often wore their own clothes. I believe you can see Bogart in the same suit in The Maltese Falcon and Casablanca as a result. Strange he couldn't wear his own DJ.
