I've seen Casablanca more times than A Beautiful Mind, and I worked on that movie.

My first viewings were indeed from the balcony of the Brattle Theatre, where one could get books of ten tickets cheap as a grad student. My last viewing was just before the pandemic, in the Stanford Theatre.

I vowed to let go of all inhibitions, and let the movie guide my emotions. That's how Casablanca deserves to be seen.

The Brattle Theatre is a treasure.

I have to confess that I haven't been to the Brattle in ages; I go into the city for a lot fewer evening events than I did. But that's pretty much the last relic of quirky Cambridge theaters. And even campus film events get a lot less traffic than they used to.
