This volume contains various enlightening behind-the-scenes glimpses at how the Oscar-winning movie was made and how the screenplay eveolved. Written by one of its original writers, Howard Koch, Casablanca: Script and Legend is incisive and authoritative. Also includes contributions from Umberto Eco, Roger Ebert and Charles Champlin to name but a few. A classic book to accompany a classic film.
"Casablanca is, for many, the quintessential World War II romance, so it's most welcome to have the story of its making, as well as its script, to prove, if nothing else, that what Bogart actually said to Sam was, 'Play it!'" - Peter Bogdonavich "I promise this book will become a treasured possession of Casablanca-phlles who will handle it with reverent care and perhaps even buy two copies, one for reading and one to squirrel away where it will remain safe and undamaged" - The Chicago Tribune "Casablanca is a classic. The script reads beautifully [and] the book is a must for film buffs." - Los Angeles Times"
Howard Koch's screenwriting credits include Casablanca, Letter From an Unknown Woman and Mission to Moscow. He is also the author of The Panic Broadcast. He lives in California.
