Cabo Blanco Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: J. Lee Thompson
Genres: Action, Thriller, War, Romance
Rating:
In this strange, unsatisfying remake of Casablanca, directed by J._Lee_Thompson, a bar owner helps a woman find a missing fortune. Right after the end of WWII, Giff Hoyt (Charles_Bronson) owns a bar in Peru into which Marie Allesandri (Dominique_Sanda) enters one day, in search of her lover and some missing money. Matters are complicated by Gunther Beckdorff (Jason_Robards), a Nazi who has his own plans for the money. Terredo (Fernando_Rey) observes all the action and helps at an important moment. Despite the very good cast which also includes Camilla_Sparv and Gilbert_Roland, all of the various subplots and characters fail to gel, and Caboblanco is confusing, unsatisfying and slow-moving. Any fan of Casablanca should skip this and see the original again. Linda Rasmussen, Rovi
