I saw it the first time in 1976. I worked at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe that year. Another casino at Stateline, Del Webb’s Sahara Tahoe, showed some classic films, including ‘Casablanca,’ in their main showroom on some week nights during the summer. It was a great venue for watching that movie. Strange to think the movie was only 34 years old then while my first viewing of it was 36 years ago.
The old theater in our little FResno County town never showed first run movies so it may have been a year or two later that I saw it. . Watch your FReepmail for a video I just received...
