A model of studio-era storytelling, Curtiz’s wartime romance packs intrigue, heartbreak, humor and some of Hollywood’s most indelible dialogue into 102 magical minutes. But did your hosts think this was the beginning of a beautiful Canonization, or did Casablanca amount to less than a hill of beans?
