Clive Owen Wednesday

Over on Hidden Gauntlet, they have an interesting discussion about who they'd cast in the remake of Casablanca. I know, I know, the very thought seems like blasphemy, but it's a fun exercise anyway. Here are some of their choices:

Rick Blaine:














Illsa Lun:













Victor Lazlo:













Agree or disagree?

I so disagree about Clive as Rick. What woman would leave HIM? I think I'd cast Tommy Lee Jones :)

Twenty years ago, I would have agreed with you. I think TLJ may be a little too old for that part now. Their other choice for Rick was George Clooney. So not feeling that one.

NO, not George Clooney for Rick! ACK! I do like GC, but he isn't right for Rick. Hmmmm.....Clive would work, but I agree with Heather, who could leave him???

I like Cate Blanchett for Ilsa.

Jude Law works as Victor.

Yes, Cate Blanchett! The right mix of vulnerability and strength. Also I think Kate Winslett could be good. How about Daniel Craig as Rick? He has that same craggy toughness as Bogart.
