<p>I saw some of the collection when we were there this past weekend for parents weekend. Very nice collection! Loved seeing the bench form Forest Gump: took photos of us near it with a great photo of Tom Hanks holding a box of chocolates displayed behind the bench. So iconic in the world of film!</p>
