Curtiz (film)

During the shoot, he had to battle almost daily with political censors who wanted to change the film's script.

[7] Curtiz, who is credited with nearly 200 films, was a highly controversial, aggressive, womanizing, selfish, violent and crude personality.

[9] Its story takes place in 1942, during the filming of Casablanca, when the Japanese had destroyed Pearl Harbor, the Germans had already started bombing the British, and the United States had just entered World War II.

[10] In defiance of these political interventions, Curtiz is determined to make his film a success, but he also faces serious family tensions during the shoot.

The endangerment of his sister, who has stayed in Hungary, and his troubled relationship with his daughter, who has emerged after a long period of absence, take unexpected turns during the filming of the movie.
