Casablanca 1942 (8/10)
Dir. Michael Curtiz
tw: guns, death, war, gender/racial stereotypes, nazis
It's a classic for a reason, it's a lovely little anti-Nazi/German romance filled with adventure. It's defiantly a film that wouldn't quite pass today because of the many stereotypes that are used but it's one of those films that make you think "that's just how it was back then". Of course, that doesn't excuse any of the stereotypes discussed in the film but it is a film from the 40s so you may have to opt out of most old movies in general if you're not a fan of the views they held back then. Overall, it's a pop culture classic that's got some fun themes so I think it's worth watching.
