- Joy Page and Helmut Dantine played the roles of Bulgarian newlyweds Annina and Jan Brandel. He played a desperate Bulgarian refugee, gambling to obtain visa money and she played his bride in the film Casablanca (1942).
One of the scenes that make Casablanca one of the greatest movies of all time.

I wouldn't know, I've only viewed this amazing film about one hundred times, or more, over the last fifty years.
Colorizing this cinematic masterpiece is like using crayons on the Mona Lisa.
No it is not. You pretentious twat.
The original still exists. You can find THIS SCENE in black and white on youtube in 30 seconds. colorizing it is an interesting experiment, which can help see things which might otherwise be left in the dark. Don't fetishize your own nostalgia. The value of the movie is not in the colors, or the absence thereof.
@@christianfaux736 wrong, wrong, wrong. It is you who is being pretentious here. At least your name is interesting; nothing else in your condescending, silly argument is. @Nelson Montana : couldn't agree more. Pay no attention to him; he doesn't even have any content to point to on his channel, whereas you have amassed an interesting amount. Says it all.
I clicked on this video out of curiosity to see what a colorized 'Casablanca' would look like. I watched three seconds and stopped. Maybe one day the technology will make an 'adequate' colour version, but I'll still stick to the original B&W, because that is how the film is tonally and artistically designed to be watched.
This statement is 100% correct and fact checked.
@@bobsanders9114 My apologies -- I thought your comment was to me. Good to see a fellow fan appreciative of great cinema. At any rate, I think that guy got humbled and removed his comment.
To me this is the moment where Rick drops the macho facade and makes his pivot to nobility. The look on his face, when he hears the description of sacrificial love, is the greatest moment in American acting ever.
True... but, you got the impression that he's done this before.
It certainly touched a nerve.
@ Thomas Briggs. Humphrey Bogart was a superb actor, but two other scenes in film history (one a deleted scene) at least equal the scene in Casablanca you refer to as the greatest scene in movie history and they are (1) the deleted scene in "The Wizard of Oz" in which Judy Garland through tears sings the reprise of "Over The Rainbow" when Dorothy Gale is being held captive in the Wicked Witch of the West's castle and (2) the scene at the end of "Field of Dreams" when Ray Kinsella played superbly by Kevin Costner says to his father John Kinsella , "Dad you want to have a catch?". Two magnificent moments in film history. So sad that the Judy Garland scene is a lost scene.
"Things are very bad there. The devil has the people by the throat." God, what dialogue! And when Rick saves this girl from the designs of Capt. Renault with a gesture that some people are aware of (Carl, the croupier, Capt. Renault himself,) despite his gruff reaction, you know he really is a "rank sentimentalist." What a great moment in a great film.
Renault was also was good & yes, he took advantage of the Ladies... but, he never went back on his word. Evidently, he was still fighting the NAZI's, but in the shadows... ie, he was a spy.
@@kevinkirtley7715 He hated the Nazis because they seized his car company, and now he has to work as the police chief of Casablanca.
“I don’t know. Nobody has ever loved me that way.”
@@jjeherrera Although Rick had thought one women did so, unfortunately and until she left himat a rail station in the rain (and seemingly, was envisioning her, as he was having the conversation).
It is the very small things in this movie that make it so great even though they may go unnoticed. When the kid takes Bogarts advice and places his last chips on 22, the look on his face is one of last ditch determination. But if you really watch Bogart, his eyes drop down to the floor for an instant, then come up to look at the back of the young man's head, and that one look conveys so much. It conveys envy because the young man has a woman who loves him so much, sadness because he doesn't have that, and a hope that they will indeed find a better life. How many of today's so called actors could convey so much with so little?
Thank -You for posting this scene from my
All-time favorite movie.
Truly Great !!!!!
This is my favorite scene in the movie .... It shows Rick resetting his moral compass to his true self ...... And rejoining life after the dissolution of heart break ........
Not sure about that - he keeps drinking. Essentially he's trying to help that couple avoid his fate, which is profound, I think, in itself. Her going back to Bulgaria is like him going back to Paris. That move is conflated with his lost love. In a sense, he earns his redemptive love back in that scene.
This movie is 10 times better in black and white
Make that 100000x
I totally agree with you
funny really......everytime I watch this..i ACTUALLY feel I`m back in the 1940`s....
Colorizing this masterpiece is a crime of the highest order.
What's going to be even worse is when they do a remake of this movie, and they will
No it is not. You pretentious twat.

@@mrnegatively5125 I seriously doubt that a remake will ever be made. About 20 years ago, to make the point that Hollywood wouldn't know a classic, a writer sent the script around to various producers. The only thing he changed was the title, giving it the original title, "Everybody Comes to Rick's." Every producer, except for one, rejected it. The one who didn't actually recognized the story and said something to the effect of, "You can't remake perfection. "
Chill. The original black and white hasn't been harmed. It's an interesting thing to do.
Thank you for posting this wonderful scene,,,,, we should all be this classy
One of my favorite scenes in this movie but it looks better in black and white
I wasn't aware this movie had a colorized version. I am grateful to whomever provided this clip. I'll have to try and find a copy.
I loved this escene, i loved all the move!!!😍😍😍😍
Thanks for posting this. Although in black and white the picture looks better.
One of the few famous films where Bulgaria is mentioned NOT as a cesspool. Amen to that! :)
This colorization makes everything look murky. But it's a great scene!
"Nobody ever loved me that much."
my favorite line of the movie.
"The Devil has the people by the throat."
Gets me every time.
yep
And now it's the same
She's even more beautiful in colour!
I respecfully disagree. She is very beautiful, but as seen in black and white, I am certain that the *only* more beautiful actress I had ever seen was Ingrid Bergman herself, in this same movie.
@@ScooterOnHisWay2024 Ingrid is beautiful too but I prefer her way more. I dont know if you know this but dark hair is my thing!
"yours (problem) may work out" and "He's just a lucky guy" ... I love double meaning of those words. Moments like those make this film so special. But who the hell had such a crazy idea of getting it colorised?
Pay attention to the dialogue. Renault sends her to Rick to verify that he will stick to his word and get them out of Casablanca. He wants to help, but for sexual favors from her. She basically explains this to Rick, when she asks if he could basically forgive her, if he was her husband, for having sex with Renault to get them out of Casablanca. Rick foils Renaults plans by letting the husband win at roulette. It would allow them to pay renault to get them out, as opposed to her having sex with him. And this is why Renault says" why do you interfere with my romances?" to Rick afterward.
rockysikander Exactly!
The American Film Institute rated it the 2nd (out of 100) greatest films of all time. I'm not sure how the movie viewers of today would rate it. There are countless younger people who probably haven't even seen it, and wouldn't understand it historically. And it's probably more fair to say that Bogart is the one who had/has a cult status. I would rank this one high, just as I would the Caine Mutiny (also with Bogart). I believe the greatest movies are the ones that make you forget that you're watching a movie, and that you're part of the adventure. This movie does that, as does "The Godfather". Bogart was a great actor! Start at 1:41 and watch the reality of his pained expression to her question. His eyes wander away from her as he thinks about what she is asking, and it's hard to believe that he's acting, and that there's a camera crew right in his face, only approx 5 feet from him! So subtle, and short, but what a great piece of acting right there! His great acting here is even more notable when you realize that sound motion pictures were really only in existence for about 20 years when this movie was made. Bogie was obviously a natural! If you want to see a great mini-series, Watch "Lonesome Dove" with Robert Duvall. Great acting in a great movie. You feel like you're a part of the adventure, and that you get to know the characters. Be sure to watch it, if you haven't already. It has everything in it!
@@strictlycomments Gee, thanks for "explaining" it, none of us adults could figure that out! LOL.
@@TWS-pd5dc I can see that. You're obviously a slow learner. It took you 5 years to reply.
Colorizing this absolute masterpiece is a profound cultural sin, an incomparable act of artistic and intellectual ignorance.
No it is not. You pretentious twat.

If you HONESTLY think that ADDING COLOR RUINS THE MOVIE then your appreciation of the movie is STRICTLY superficial.
So many people attacking the colorization. Yes, the movie is supposed to be black and white, and yes, it’s better in black and white. But, the colorization is actually pretty decent, and adds a different perspective to the scene. You aren’t supposed to treat the colorization as the original, much less better than the original. It’s just to give you a new perspective, and an idea of how it actually would have looked on set.
Kinda like if " The Wizard of Oz " was shown 1st in color, then in B + W when she got to Oz. Just not something we usually see.
This scene is 100x better in black and white. It just is. This is a movie that does not need to be colorized.
I always thought that Joy Page was ideal for this role, in fact the casting for all of Casablanca was great, every character owned their roles. Her youthful innocence was no coincidence. She was 17 and fresh out of high school. Her mother had divorced and married Jack Warner, then the head of Warner Brothers--Casablanca was a WB film. Page landed the role without help of Warner, who had discouraged her entry into acting. Warner wouldn't sign her to a contract though she made films for other studios.
I can believe I found my friend's uncle in this movie!! His is Helmut Dantine.
SERIOUSLY?!
Well, the coloring sucks, but man, what a powerful scene.
When gambling always remember that 'scared money never wins' .... but love never fails and even in Casablanca your problems may work out !
I love the Colorized version I wish I could buy it on the download
Best scene of entire film...
This is Class.
“Monsieur, you are a man. If someone loved you very much so that your happiness was the only thing she wanted in the world. She did a bad thing to make certain of it. Could you forgive her?”
Der Kultfilm. 👍👍👍
I'm guessing Claude Rains was a non-smoker. Every time he takes puff he blows all the smoke out immediately throughout the movie. Anyway, great, pivotal scene with Bogie and Joy Page.
My favourite line from the movie makes no sense. but it is funny.
Gambler. A you sure this place is honest?
Carl the waiter. As honest as the day is long.
Not so much as WHAT Carl says as they WAY Carl says it. IMHO.
@@ronh8521 I think you missed it - the club only opens at night
@@davidmorgan7235 please Google the phrase. Has nothing to due with hours of operation.
@@ronh8521 Its a disjunctive joke, Ron; the roulette table isn't honest; the club and the table only opens at night; to "be as honest as the day is long" is irrelevant to a club that only plays at night. (and yes I knew how common the phrase is) The writers were riffing, using a metaphor for honesty to assert dishonesty.
I remember a Tumbleweeds cartoon making the same joke but more obviously; "how honest is your game? As honest as the day is long. When do you play. At night"
@@davidmorgan7235 ok. You win. Believe me, Im truly sorry I brought it up.
Yes Yes Yes
I Love it!!!
Thanks!!!
Woah! This looks incredible in color!
You want my advice?
Just a lucky guy?..... Yeah RIck, anything you say,,,,,
Is the French guy from The Rules of the Game?
But their names are Annina and Jan Brandel. These are NOT Bulgarian names, these are Bavarian names!
But it the entire history of Europe, no populations have ever shifted from one country to another, right?
They could have been aliases. They are fugitives, after all.
"He always has." That line makes me laugh. Sounds like stock prospectus. Past performance not indicative of the future.
No colorizing B&W masterpieces.
You are not the culture cop.
Love this scene but colorized..........ugh.
It's not actually the worst time to be living in Bulgaria though, truth be told.
@Doug The Moleman: I hope you mean Bulgaria in the present! During WWII all of Europe was in turmoil! Put some perspective on your comments!
Pull and Cheer for the Underdog.
Why Rick tells this lady to better go back to Bulgaria? Can someone please explain?
@230968 Rick tells the lady that because what she was about to do with Captain Renault (if Rick didn’t intervene at the roulette table) is same thing Ingrid Bergman did to him in Paris...
@@jduwayne1 a lot worse than ilsa have done to rick.
This lady was about to sleep with Captain Renault behind her husband’s back in order to get exit visas to go to America with her husband. Rick tried to stop her.
I m italian I should Luke to seen alla casablanca in color
Considerable charm on this scene is lost to color. Still a great scene but feels tampered.
R.I.P joy.
Joy was the last surviving cast member, passing in 2008 at the age of 83.
RIP dear lady☮🕯
Nice scene but Bulgaria did not participate in WWII, only as friends of Germany to occupy northern Greece
That's not entirely accurate. Germany threatened them if they didn't allow German forces to pass through their country, but they also demanded Bulgaria join the axis. Bulgarian troops participated in the invasion of Greece and Yugoslavia. Bulgaria withdrew their forces in 1944 and told the Germans out of their country. Russian troops were approaching so Bulgaria took the opportunity to get out of the war altogether.

Ella pide ayuda por amor ,otras no piden SAQUEAN USAN Y NO SE QUIEREN ACOSTAR CON EL PATRON
Writers should have chosen another country other than Bulgaria. Bulgaria was a German ally. They entered the war in order to create a 'Greater Bulgaria' and get back the land they lost in the Balkan Wars. Interesting why Serbia may not have been chosen instead. Maybe the writers thought Americans -- the film was aimed at an American audience -- would be more sympathetic to a Bulgarian couple trying the get to America than a Serbian couple. Yeh, probably true. Although Serbia suffered far more in the war than Bulgaria. The Nazis would have eventually murdered or enslaved all Serbians, whereas Bulgaria had been a German ally in WW1.
@Pat Downs because the mention of Bulgaria was true before WWII. Bulgaria was a ally of Germany and most of the Balkans were aligned with Russia that later in in WWII needed to align with US and its allies to defeat Hitler...
who colorized this and why
Ted Turner had it colorized back in the early 1980s. There was a huge public outcry.
Someone 100,000 years ago, there's no use in complaining about it now. Nobody below 25 watches this movie or knows of its existence anyhow. It'll be like Ben-Hur or Tarzan, just a thing of the past.
I think colorizing is better.
Im looking for this movie complete colorized to download
No No no no
Colonization of this is wrong
In Bulgaria today the devil is even bigger that before.
The devil? The Tsar? Shame on you, girl...
Most figurants in that movie were German refugees fleeing the nazis.
あざっす！
And they come to the US, after a couple of years, she divorces him, takes all his money and assets and he winds up living under a bridge - welcome to America.
Rick does not like the neck 💋
With color there's no color. It kills our imagination. The fog effect on the shot of Bulgarian girl doesn't work any more.
Casablanca in Color...No , No , No.....

Very actual these days. Ukraine and the Russian 'partial moblisation'. I stay human and imagine that lots of people need a 'Rick'.
This is horrible, reminds me of the special editon changes in Star Wars, but worst.
what was the changes
+Reo Langster colorization.
It’s ruined

Colorizing Casablanca... YUCK!
