Casablanca can suck it from here to eternity.

OG Nosferatu (1922) was pretty good though. And the film version of To Kill a Mockingbird.

Really? Just watched Casablanca again for the 5th time. I love it.

Casablanca is unironically one of my favourite movies! It's better than most of the chaff coming out in cinema today.

It builds tension on so many levels throughout its length, while also being funny and evocative. It puts admirable people in vulnerable places where they rely on other uncaring and self-motivated individuals, and then does it again with higher stakes. When tension is at its maximum its then deflated all with a single line callback to the start of the movie.
