DYNAMIC DUOS PART 7: WE'LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS.
It's the most beloved movie of all time. Hands down. It's also the place where two star-crossed lovers meet once again after one of those messy breakups.
The wild finish. A guy standing on the station platform in the rain, with a comical look on his face because his insides had been kicked out. No matter. That would not be the end of the story.
Even if they don't end up together. Even if they never see each other again after the final reel ends. It's OK.
RICK: If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.
ILSA: But what about us?
RICK: We'll always have Paris. We didn't have, we lost it until you came to Casablanca. We got it back last night.
ILSA: When I said I would never leave you...
Rick: And you never will.
Another one of my fave films of all time...maybe you noticed the framed poster while at the villa?
ReplyDeletethey may have paris, but darling, we will always have the hellmouth.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh, for the days when it wasn't the hellmouth but instead was a haven for jaggoffs! *Sigh*
ReplyDeleteAnd Paxy, you certainly do have excellent taste in decor!!!
