Each film is introduced by Ret. General Wesley Clarke, as an homage to all those who took part in the conflict.  I regret that I found this so late in the month, however I checked the programming and next Friday, July 25th they will be showing two of my favorites, namely "Random Harvest" starring Greer Garson and Ronald Colman, and "Waterloo Bridge," starring Robert Taylor and Vivien Leigh."
