There won’t be a dry eye in the house when we screen this deeply romantic and unapologetically heart-wrenching melodrama from Mervyn LeRoy (producer of The Wizard of Oz). Set at the end of WWI, the story follows a British veteran suffering from amnesia who escapes a small asylum and wanders into town, where he falls in love with a local singer. The two embark on a romance despite the dark cloud of the soldier’s mysterious past looming over them. Greer Garson and Ronald Colman are perfectly paired as the star-crossed lovers in this rarely screened classic, which received seven Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture in 1943.
