FILM Casablanca with Wine

Join wine geek Tony Elvin in at The Crescent Theatre as we present a unique showing of this timeless classic alongside a themed wine tasting experience featuring five fantastic wines.  

Easy to enter, but much harder to leave, especially if you're wanted by the Nazis. Such a man is Resistance leader Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid), whose only hope is Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart), a cynical American who sticks his neck out for no one especially Victor's wife, Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman), the ex-lover who broke his heart. Ilsa offers herself in exchange for Laszlo's transport out of the country and bitter Rick must decide what counts more - personal happiness or countless lives hanging in the balance. Winner of three Academy Awards including Best Picture, Casablanca marks decades as a beloved favourite. No matter how often you've seen it, this looks like yet another beginning of a beautiful friendship with an unforgettable classic.  

The movie will be paused at appropriate moments to pour you your next glass of wine, tell you all about it and share some fascinating Casablanca movie trivia.
