The story about Rick Blaine and his American bar in Casablanca, and how he falls into such a strong relationship with Ilsa is wonderful.
They met in Paris and had the most wonderful time but they had to escape. The morning they had to leave the girl, Ilsa, is not there. She had sent him a letter saying that she was sorry she couldn't be with him, and Rick was feeling like his inside had been ripped out.

She told Rick she wants to be with him, but he knows it can't
