ENTRY TASK:
Answer the below question via the comment section at the bottom of this blog post
THE QUESTION:
In this 1942 film, Greer Garson had something to cry about. World War II left English cities, and the decorous village of Balham, cratered by bomb raids; the local church lost its roof in those sorties. Garson suffers the loss of family; she confronts and disarms a downed German aviator. She is determined to maintain a semblance of normality by reading her youngest son “Alice in Wonderland” during an air raid. She kept a stiff upper lip even as moviegoers’ lips were tremulous from crying. What is the name of this 1942 film directed by William Wyler?
You have until Saturday, May 31, 5PM EST to submit your answer. A winner will be picked at random and announced on Sunday, June 1.
Please note that you must live in the Continental US to be eligible.
