28 things - Watch Casablanca

source
I thought I'd get started on my list nice and early this year and crossed the first achievement off on my birthday.  As a birthday treat, Nico cooked me a delicious lasagne, we opened a bottle of my favourite wine and put on Casablanca.  My Dad bought my the DVD for Christmas and I had been saving it especially for this occasion.

The same as last year with Gone with the Wind, I wanted to get another classic film on my list.  Casablanca is certainly that.  I do like watching black and white films although I have to admit, the acting is a little wooden in parts, but you can't take away from what a great romance it is.  I also love the fact that so many famous quotes come from the film and I never knew that.  (Here's looking at you kid, play it again Sam...)

Of course, I don't have to have the classics on my list to watch them, I also recently watched Reservoir Dogs for the first time and Tarantino was rescued in my eyes as I really didn't like Pulp Fiction.  I'm now pondering what to watch next...
