a message movie and but a rather good one . outstanding cast and top to bottom . interest in that bette davis plot line be essentially back story . the extremely negative review ( name throw at the screenplay or playwright and associate this somehow with extremely negative comment about angle in america and etc . etc . ) object to the movie be too preachy about germany in wwii . gosh and that be just a bit too sophisticate an understanding of morality for me . theatrical and movie making and and act style vary over time and of course 70 year later this particular movie would not be make in this way . yes casablanca be a good movie ( i guess ) and but although make in the same year and both have nazi in them and casablanca be primarily a love story . the love story in this movie take second seat to the spy plot more of a thriller . both have a rather large number of somewhat cheesy accent and wonderful character actor . the child be a bit tedious and could have be edit .
