Biography

Principalement chanteuse et guitariste (entre autres de cabaret), Corinna Mura se produit à ce titre dès le début des années 1930. Au cinéma, elle apparaît dans sept films américains, les trois premiers sortis en 1942, le plus connu étant Casablanca de Michael Curtiz (elle y interprète deux chants en s'accompagnant à la guitare, dont La Marseillaise aux côtés de Paul Henreid).

Elle retrouve le réalisateur Michael Curtiz sur deux autres films, Passage pour Marseille (1944, avec Humphrey Bogart et Michèle Morgan) puis Pour elle un seul homme (1957, avec Ann Blyth et Paul Newman), son septième et ultime tournage. Entretemps, mentionnons encore Sérénade à Mexico de William Keighley (son avant-dernier film, 1947, avec Shirley Temple et Franchot Tone).

En 1944-1945, pour son unique prestation à Broadway (New York), Corinna Mura chante dans la comédie musicale Mexican Hayride , sur une musique de Cole Porter, aux côtés de June Havoc dans le rôle principal.

Elle meurt prématurément à Mexico en 1965, à 55 ans, des suites d'un cancer.

Set in December, 1941, American expatriate Rick Blaine is the proprietor of an upscale nightclub and gambling den in Casablanca. "Rick's Café Américain" attracts a varied clientele: Vichy French, Italian, and German officials; refugees desperate to reach the still neutral United States; and those who prey on them. Although Rick professes to be neutral in all matters, it is later revealed he ran guns to Ethiopia during its war with Italy and fought on the Loyalist side against the fascist Nationalists in the Spanish Civil War.
