Hi Hu+o+ng and others,

Oops, my comments were intended for the film "Love Story", the main
actress was an Alice something, I don't remember her full name. 
"Casablanca" here was used only as an adjective to name a class of fans.
My apologies for the ambiguity.

I am no exception (just watched "Gaslight", also directed by a Hungarian
director.  BTW, can someone please post the text of "As Time goes by...",
that is a good one. How about "When a man loves a woman"? A good one too. 

There is a great Woody Allen film called "Play it again, Sam", which
parodizes much of Casablanca ideas.

Hmmm...I have no problem with her, haven't seen what she has been in
lately. The film "When Harry meet Sally" (is that the one you are talking
about?) is indeed a good and popular one. 

Cheers, Hai.
