In Honor of Bastille Day
The French National Holday, la Fête Nationale, is today. It commemorates the fall of the monarchy and the establishment of France as a republic. It's a good time to revisit one of the more emotional scenes in the movie Casablanca, in which French patriots at Rick's Cafe American out-sing the Germans with their national anthem.

Casablanca....My favorite movie of all time.
That and Oh Canada are the two best for the average person to sing. They can really rock them out.
Ours is still the best but it's a brute to sing.
Ours is the best too.
IIRC many of the peope in the scene were actual refugees from the nazis.
