CHERISHING OUR VALLEY 2013
Casablanca, was a very important, anti-fascist film made during the Second World War. It's theme song "As Time Goes By" has become the credits theme for today's Warner Brothers films.

Stars Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman made the film for Warner Brothers in Burbank. The exterior air port scenes were filmed at the historic Van Nuys Airport. - ps ........
