Well, of course, there's CASABLANCA! And it's dueling-anthems predecessor at Warners, DODGE CITY.
The Casablanca Marseillaise was probably inspired more by this scene in Grand Illusion where the French POWs sing it right in front of their German captors after an important German fort is taken.

I can't find a good clip of the song being performed but "Los Mexicanos al Grito de Guerra" from 1943 is a great movie about the composing of the song.

Mr. Moderator, that is the movie's actual title.

One thing to add though is that many of the videos on YouTube are mislabelled. I own Bali: Isle of Paradise on DVD and it is definitely not the video titled such on YouTube. It also features many bare breasts which is probably why TCM never schedules it.

What a sexy name. Yeah, try getting women into the movie theaters when you're billed as "Archibald Leach."

While on the topic of Bloc anthems, DPRK movies often have the characters breaking out into anthems for no real reason.

They could have also done a film by Alice-Guy Blache, though she only made short films.

Women direct films and no Riefenstahl movies?
Not even any of her non-political films like Blue Light?

Also genuinely a bit surprised TCM didn't try doing something like schedule the Matrix movies during this event or anything similar.

I think Count Orlok from Nosferatu looks like Ayn Rand

I don't have an IMDB or Wikipedia account set up but I think it should be re-added to his filmography section. To me also, it looks like it's clearly the same guy.

Is the man in these pics really the great silent actor Creighton Hale? If not, who is he?

According to one of my old movie books, one of the critics around this time, Bosley Crowther, hated BONNIE AND CLYDE with a passion. And of course moviegoers loved the movie.
Count me as one of those who consider BONNIE AND CLYDE a classic.
I think many hated it because it was too violent. I remember a scene where a man is shot in the face right on screen. That must have been a lot for people who were used to the Hayes Code.

Kriss, the Sword of Death, more commonly called Goona Goona. I saw this one on YouTube but I barely remember anything about it. I'll have to see it again.

Nowadays you're much more likely to see paid programming or commercials for Cher's greatest hits than television static.
