Description
Join us for a movie night on the Longfellow lawn.
We’ll be showing The White Angel. It is claimed that this Hollywood biopic of famed nursing crusader Florence Nightingale was inspired by Henry Longfellow’s poem, “Santa Filomena.” The film starred Warner Brothers’ leading lady at the time, Kay Francis, in the role of the heroine of the Crimean War.
Run time is 92 minutes, unrated. The movie will be shown on the east lawn of the site - feel free to bring a picnic blanket or folding chair - we will provide some seating.
