‘BEAUTIFUL UPON A HILL’ (1949, 21:13)
This early Wagner College promotional film, released in 1949, starred a young Wagner student, Robert Loggia, playing the character “Bob.” Loggia, a native Staten Islander, went on to a long, highly successful career as a film and TV actor known especially for his “tough guy” roles.
