@RWSCEM and it's right that in its "history" (lol 200 years) , USA had some TERRIBLE continental neighbours like Canadians (ouch!!) and mexicans (arghh!!). The french had continental neighbours such as the British (who conquered the largest empire of the world) Germans, Russians (during the napoleonic era), Dutch, Spanish( who conquered a large part of america), Italians, Austrians, and Arabs for 1500 years, and hold them back... So they have no military lessons to learn from USA I think.

@Dietpepsivanilla "BBC:

There have been 53 major wars in Europe

France had been a belligerent in 49 of them; UK 43.

In 185 battles that France had fought over the past 800 years, their armies had won 132 times, lost 43 times and drawn only 10.

Giving the French military the best record of any country in Europe."

You should drop that "France-always-surrender" stupid joke, it's getting too old to be funny (70 years is a long time)...

@Nationalist1104 Because Laszlo is a man of action, and he realizes the way to counter the Nazi's, and really doesn't care about the consequences.

[Nationalist1104]

I thought Laszlo was a Czech - how come he is singing the french national anthem?

such a powerful scene. The shot of Yvonne belting tearfully wrenches me heart every time i see it.

This scene always brings me to the brink of tears.

It only makes this scene more powerful, I think, to recall that many of the actors working in this movie were themselves refugees, exiles, and expatriates.

@DelStrainComedy I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are trying to say. My English isn't that good so could you please rewrite all this with some more punctuation and grammar ? I really want to understand your point.

@Kentaurosu Bollocks French as bad a Vicci who let Facists take Libertys twice in a 100 years and were meant to forget that? My grandfather fought in North Africa and Italy and it disgusts me to see state of UK and so call EU . Lest we forget brink of oblivion and theyre running show bringing us to brink with A MAD VISION THAT WILL NEVER WORK. Im Scottish not British but id rather be that than European TBH Id rather be dead.

Anyone know what the general vision and viewpoint of Casablanca is? Doing it for my Leaving Cert, great film, but difficult to break down.

I once watched casablanca with a group of older (mid 20s) women and the spent the entire evening heckling. I love this movie.
