I know it's near heresy to suggest doing one at all but how would you do it given the chance?
I'd reverse the political situation and make the conflict about Axis spies sabotaging the Free French stationed there. But I would build upon the friendship between Rick Blaine and Capt. Renault;since they made their commitment to the cause, I'd emphasize the wartime/espionage aspect alittle more but not make it into Inglourious Basterds or something. There'd still be a light atmosphere and humor in the story. It would draw heavily from that era of WW2 movies featuring Bogart like Sahara, Passage to Marseille, Across the Pacific, etc. One thing that I'm uncertain of is the romance if needed at all. I'd certainly not repeat the love triangle bit.
