The interesting thing about Casablanca and one of the reasons that it is so good is that EVERY SINGLE ACTOR in that film is a "A-list" actor from somewhere in Europe. Except for the lead actors (Bogart, Bergman, Lorry et al) the actors were all drawn from among refugees from Hitler's Europe.
Actually Peter Lorry was a refugee also. he was one of the few to be successful in Hollywood because he was able to master English quickly.
