Oh,sister. I didn't have the wherewithal to see said film. Based on the above, i've been blessed. But I have been secretly admiring your icons. Black Narcissus is one of my guilty pleasures. Each of the sisters were fascinating. I admired Phillippa,identified with Briony, and watched Honey like a bad accident waiting to happen. In my mind, Ruth and sister superior had a 'history', unrequited,as the order would have it. But, face it, Ruth wanted Clodagh like a dog wants a bone. Driven mad, I tell you, by the forbidden nature of her desires! Heeeee. love that art direction.
My child, I've seen almost every film with nuns in it, except for _Black Narcissus_. I have it on my to-see list. Reading your post makes me even more interested in seeing it! Thank you for the comments.
OMG, sister, I can't believe this. Where did you get your icons? Get thee to blockbuster, netflix, amazon, quickly. There was not much of a story; it was more about atmosphere. The art direction and cinemetography won Oscars that year, beautiful images. It is why it is in my top 5 nun movies. 1. Song of Bernadette. JJ, sigh, I was totally in love with her as a child. 2. Two Mules for sister sara Loved shirley and clint in this road movie. the ending was perfect in the bath. 3.The nun's story. audrey scrubbing the floors remains an enduring visual in film. 4. Sound of music the hills are alive......julie was so cute with her short do. crush again 5. BN HM,,,,Dead man walking great acting by Sean Penn authentic cajun accent!

Date: 2007-08-28 05:03 pm (UTC)_The Trouble with Angels_, _Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows_, --Haley Mills gets into trouble at her Catholic girls' schools. Fun.
_The Bells of St. Mary's_--Bingo and Bergman! Sigh.
_In This House of Breed_--Diana Rigg leaves it all behind to find peace with the sisters of Breed.
Isn't this fun?
