A rose named after a British woman would be as beautiful as she in this World War II film that was made BEFORE THE END OF THE WAR. Hindsight induced a panic attack when it occurred to me that the resolution couldn’t be war’s end because the war wasn’t over! My goodness, Readers, there’s so much to say in 100 words. Greer Garson’s acceptance speech was longer than this blog. She also married her son from the film, which is a bit strange. This movie is a beautiful bit of historical heartbreak and deserved every rosy accolade thrown its way.
