I realized right away what it was because I remember you writing about this a while back. I was busy while it was on, so I only saw bits and pieces, but I do hope to sit down and watch it in its entirety some day soon.<BR/><BR/>~GeorgetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-8293598246278748832008-07-10T22:39:00.000-04:002008-07-10T22:39:00.000-04:00Deborah Kerr?

You might also like "Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison" with Deborah Kerr as a feisty Irish nun hiding from the Japanese with Robert Mitchum.elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-2804638154067855272008-07-10T14:57:00.000-04:002008-07-10T14:57:00.000-04:00People are always a tad surprised to learn that I ...People are always a tad surprised to learn that I love movies about nuns. There are some excellent ones: <I>Black Narcissus</I>, <I>A Nun's Story</I>, <I>In This House of Brede</I>. (That last one made me wish we Jews had a monastic tradition.)<BR/><BR/>I love Marlene Dietrich and I love movies about nuns.
