It Happened on
November 26, 1942
On November 26, 1942, in the midst of World War II, a film called “Casablanca” premiered at the Hollywood Theater in New York City. Warner Brothers actually rushed the release of the film, as the Allies, led by General Dwight Eisenhower, secured their hold on North Africa and invaded Casablanca that month.
