The Silver Screen Oasis

While performing for the troops, they were being bombed by the enemy but they continued to perform anyway and got a standing ovation

Thanks Miles. Of course it's The Glenn Miller Story , starring
James Stewart and June Allyson.. String of Pearls was the 2nd clue. So glad you played this round. Your turn.

I know the film, but will hold off, hoping for more participation

The unused original filmed ending to Deliverance, maybe???

(...naaah, that can't be it...the kid playin' the banjo isn't named Deliverance in that one...that should've been my first clue here, huh)

Sounds like Harold and Maude

It is indeed the glorious Harold and Maude! I think I was the original cult member, having seen the film on its first run at the Loews Paradise.

Thanks Swithin. We saw so many great movies at that Lowes Paradise on Fordham Rd. We may have even sat next to each other lol. Who knows maybe you, me and Bronxgirl may have been there at the same time. My HS graduation was held in that beautiful theater.
