how many movies are you guys planning to watch?

I figured I'd bring a bunch and we'd watch 3-4, that we decide on then, depending on how we're feeling.

Dead Man Walking

That's kind of a mood killer for a party... :P

in that case, you may want to throw in a fun & familiar one for her. Depending on her order's rules, it may be a while until she can see another film, so maybe she might be up for a good, clean movie that she really likes, even if it has nothing to do with convent life. Just a thought. :topsy:

Here are my suggestions: (Links are to IMDB)


[url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0036377/"][i]The Song Of Bernadette[/i], directed by Henry King[/url]

[url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035636/"][i]Les anges du péché[/i], (French) directed by Robert Bresson[/url]

[url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053732/"][i]Conspiracy of Hearts[/i], directed by Ralph Thomas[/url]

A lot of the ones that I was going to say have already been suggested.

But here's one that I thought of:

The Last Appeal, St. Faustina: the Apostle of Divine Mercy

Where Angels go Trouble Follows

[/quote]

Is that the sequel to "The Trouble with Angels"?

A Sister once mentioned the title of the sequel, but I couldn't remember it for the life of me. :doh:

I vote Lilies of the Field and The Trouble with Angels

I saw one about St Bernadette called The Passion of Bernadette from 1989 that was pretty good, way better than any of the ones about her fellow Frenchwoman Therese. Here is a clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfpE6uvTfRM

Well, two of her favorite movies are "The Trouble with Angels" and "Therese" so, we kinda are. :)

The Staircase

I spent like 3 hours last night trying to figure out the name of that movie! You should've mentioned it sooner! :lol:

It is! Not quite as good as "Trouble With Angels," in my opinion, but still excellent!
