Film Review: Mindwalk If a good movie is one that makes you think‚ Mindwalk must be superb. However‚ I haven’t even read the book it was based on and I can say that the book must have been better.

CASABLANCA FILM REVIEW 1. How did the practical constraints imposed by World War II affect this movie? (Give 2 examples.) Hollywood shifted from an outspoken denial of any overt promotion of the U.S. involvement in the war to an active on-screen support of that involvement. The cast was very international‚ of all the principle and supporting actors in the film came from Europe‚ only Humphrey Bogart and Dooley Wilson were born and raised in America. The rest of the actors either cam to U
