You bet calling Casablanca "a really good movie" is a hot take. That thing is a fucking work of art, a timeless masterpiece of cinema, a classic in the thruest sense, worthy of posterity beyond humanity itself. A "really good movie" he says.
Well you know, it's not quite perfect. For a movie set in Morocco, not too many Maghrebin in the main cast, which also adds a bit of hypocritical bitterness in the pivotal La Marseillaise scene. It's a powerful moment of resistance against the nazis, but also they're singing the French national anthem in a colonial protectorate of France.
It's an all-time classic, but we shouldn't get carried away and ignore its flaws.
