We decided to watch Casablanca next, to be followed by Citizen Kane, though that reverses the chronological order. Citizen Kane is many critics' choice for the greatest American film, while the popular choice for that title may well be Casablanca.
Today we took a "sweet babes" break and sucked on the eye candy (so to speak) of production numbers from the Depression-era Busby Berkeley musicals, replete with racism, sexism, leering and even social commentary.
