Summary: Classic Collector's Item
Review: Casablanca is a classic for the ages. It has great character development which will draw you into the story and help you experience the desperation of escaping the Nazi occupied Europe in 1942. Bogart gives a excellent performance as an American bar owner in Casablanca who's past comes back to haunt him as he unwillingly becomes involved in a freedom fighter's escape from the Nazi's. Bergman also gives a strong performance as Bogart's former flame.I thoroughly enjoyed this film and would recommend it to anyone. It has the drama, suspense, and plot twists to keep you on your toes.

Summary: Truly amazing
Review: Casablanca is a movie filled with top-notch actors and first rate drama. Bogart manages to be all at once sinister and lovable, harsh and merciful. You never know who's side he's playing on - and Rick Blaine (Bogart's character)doesn't even seem to know himself. Ingrid bergman never looked more beautiful, and the romance between these two never seems contrived or cliche. All the cynics out there will think I'm just following the masses, but this movie is truly an American treasure, and I'm glad part of it belongs to me. Get this movie! Do one better - spend an extra few dollars and pick up the collectors edition.

Summary: Special Edition? Nothing Special
Review: I was also peeved by the lack of details about this "Collector's Set", so I went hunting. Bottom line: Unles you want lobby cards, 8X10 stills, and a few other "collectables", save your money. The DVD itself in the "Collector's Set" appears to be identical to the DVD in the original release. Based on other vendors' sites, here's what you get for the extra money: - Lobby Cards: 8 Original limited edition lobby card prints.
- Senitype: Exclusive limited edition senitype® image from movie with 35mm film frame.
- Theatrical Poster: Original one sheet movie poster (27 x 40 ).
- Exclusive Collection: 6 Original Limited Edition B & W Photograph Stills. Information regarding the DVD in the "Collector's Set" is:
DVD CONTAINS:
- Digitally restored image and cleaned soundtrack.
- Theatrical trailers.
- YOU MUST REMEBER THIS, a 36-minute documentary newly updated with recently discovered, unseen outakes and screen tests.
- Special introduction by screen legend Lauren Bacall, wife of Humphrey Bogart. I didn't see any new DVD features on any site. This is one of the greatest films ever made, but the "extras" aren't worth the extra $... to me. I'll gladly take the original release, which should be in everyone's DVD library!!

Summary: Classic Collector's Item
Review: The DVD is still one of the best films ever made. The extras are what make this box set so unusual. Original lobby cards are very rare and expensive to purchase so these provide a unique prospective. The black and white photographs offer a behind-the-scenes look into a historical film, the one-sheet movie poster is in the box (as well as a free offer for an additional rolled one!) and the Senitype contains a film clip from the movie. For me, it's like owning a true piece of Hollywood Glamour.

Summary: Please include list of special features
Review: This is a fantastic movie, but Amazon.com unusually does not list anything to distinguish this Limited Edition Collector's Set from a regular edition. I would like to assume that Special Features are included, given the edition title, but have no way of knowing. If this is an oversight I would be grateful if Amazon.com would remedy this.
