Movie review: Casablanca
Critics say that one of the top movies of all time is Casablanca.
So I watched it.
All I can say is that that movie poured more booze and lit-up more cigarettes than any of the meanest movies I have ever seen.
Even liquor and cigarette companies would consider that movie too nauseating to watch and too vulgar -if it was to endorse their product.
Even in the most romantic scene -and considered a classic - I see smoke rising.
In that movie, every time a person stands still or seat, they pour him a drink. And to think, Casablanca is like the “50 First Dates” of the 1940’s!
Men in uniform populate the gin joint. Those men don’t have any business hanging around in such places; they should have been kicked out of service for violating the dress code.
But, of course, that was a bygone era, a time when drinking and smoking was like eating a donut and drinking coffee nowadays- only, more fashionble.
It wouldn’t bother me seing a uniformed policeman at a Mister Donut.
One might say “they’re supposed to drink and smoke because the setting was in a bar”.
What about in the airplane hangar?
