More about it:
In World War II Casablanca, Rick Blaine, exiled American and former freedom fighter, runs the most popular nightspot in town. The cynical lone wolf Blaine comes into the possession of two valuable letters of transit. When Nazi Major Strasser arrives in Casablanca, the sycophantic police Captain Renault does what he can to please him, including detaining Czech underground leader Victor Laszlo. Much to Rick's surprise, Lazslo arrives with Ilsa, Rick's one time love. Rick is very bitter towards Ilsa, who ran out on him in Paris, but when he learns she had good reason to, they plan to run off together again using the letters of transit. Well, that was their original plan....

I watched a video about the holocaust survivor whose name is George Gottlieb. It is sad to know what all those surviors went through. They were seperated from their families. And most of them never saw each other again. Because most of them had died.
But George got "lucky" and the sioldier allowde him to look for his mom. When he finally found her he was really surprised. She looked older and she was bald and exausted.
It is actually hurts me that people can do that to someone who is the same to them. People just kill each other and hurt each other. I am sure that the survivors will never forget those times, moreover they will never be able to live normal life.
