Listen in on our reviews of movies, musicals, and short films both new and old as we dissect them to understand the meaning behind them and if they are generally a good product for you to watch.

Casablanca and Saving Private Ryan
Tonight, we look at two movies that depict war, specifically WWII. Casablanca was a film that was created during WWII and is seen as a classic film from that era. The film takes place in French Morocco not Madagascar as was said in the podcast. The second is and probably will continue to be a classic which is Saving Private Ryan by Steven Spielberg. This film depicts most of the true nature of soldiers in war. It follows one squad as they look for a man name Private Ryan to return him home.
