...Generous Hands. A destroyer boomed a 21-gun salute, flags fluttered, and the noon sun bore down on Battery Park at the lower tip of Manhattan. The President stood solemnly before the memorial-eight 19-ft. granite pylons that bear the names of the dead and a giant bronze eagle that looks across the bay toward the Statue of Liberty. He spoke of the sea, struggle, sacrifice, and "what it all meant that we should be in such hazard today." Declared the President: "It means that every generation of Americans must be expected in their time to do their part...

Mock-Hero Harpagon (Hume Cronyn) is dead to his children's hope of love, dead to his servants' grievances, dead to any generous stirrings of heart or mind. He counts the world well lost for money. Skittering about like a drunken sandpiper, Hume Cronyn is a dizzy delight.
