CNN
correspondent Al Goodman and Scotty, CNN cameraman,
visited Rick's Cafe for filming on April 29. Their
coverage included an interview with "Madame Rick" - Kathy Kriger - and scenes of the restaurant's
ambience, interviews with customers, music from
Issam on the piano as well as the chef directing
orders out of the kitchen. |

The
camera caught the dramatic lighting and architectural
details that mirror the film and customers' remarks
added some fun. "It's better than the film, it's
in color," said Emilio de la Guardia, Director
of the Spanish Investment Agency Cofides. Asked
if she felt like in a movie, a French woman replied,
"No, my whole life is like a movie." If Bogart
walked in, where would Kathy seat him? "I'd put
him in the corner of the bar, where I sit. There's
a cozy little lamp there, it's comfortable and
you can still see who walks in the door." The
piece aired on CNN International and US Headline
News Thursday, May 6 and was also posted on the
CNN website. |
