Members-only premiere screening of the first part of the HBO miniseries The Pacific, an epic ten-part event that is a Playtone and Dreamworks production.

The first part focuses on the immediate aftermath of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The Pacific is based in part on the books Helmet for My Pillow by Robert Leckie and With the Old Breed by Eugene B. Sledge, with additional material from Red Blood, Black Sand by Chuck Tatum and China Marine by Eugene B. Sledge, as well as original interviews conducted by the filmmakers. The Pacific debuts on HBO March 14.
