Hey Oscars fans, welcome to the 1944 Oscars for the films of 1943. Not surprisingly the theme of many movies this year was war as most of the globe fought in WWII.
There was a movie just called Air Force! And among these war and war adjacent films came one of the most beloved, quoted and classic movies of all time… Casablanca! But while Casablanca did take home some awards… did it take home enough awards? In fact, two movies that year had more nominations than Casablanca.
Join us as we take you on a journey through some of the best movies and performances ever and discuss how and why some of them inexplicably lost out or weren’t even nominated.
Along the way you’ll discover lots of films to add to your must-watch list and learn some great film history in the process. Oh, and we know the title of this episode is a mis-quote from Casablanca! As always, thanks for listening.
