S.W.’s Verdict
Every line lands like it was written by someone who knew it would be quoted for eighty years. The structure is tight enough that you forget it was largely improvised. Bogart and Bergman generate the kind of chemistry that makes you briefly angry at the concept of acting. It holds up because the emotional logic never breaks — Rick's sacrifice feels earned every single time.
