Guest Rick777 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Has anyone seen the St.Therese of Lisieux movie? Its titled simply, Therese. Was it good? I think it may be coming out on DVD soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totus Tuus Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 It was good, but not extremely well made, and I didn't feel that it really caught the spirit of Therese. But I guess it caught the spirit that Leonardo de Fellippis knew.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortnun Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I have seen it. I am not [i]totally [/i] familiar with Therese's story, but I remember appreciating the acting and the directing, in addition to the spiritual/religious content of the film. The DVD may have extra features on it, which would really be cool. I went on the website of the movie to see how they created ther cloister, etc--very cool. If you get the movie, please share your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiyoung Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I think the movie was made with great intentions but I didn't think it was really quite finished...there was a lot more that could've been done for it. I feel like it was also trying to feed off the hype for Passion... Also, I've heard from the writings of a Hollywood type that when submitted for reviews, they ignored the suggestions to make it better and instead sought praise. All in all, it was a good project but not complete. I think there's another thread about this somewhere, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zabbazooey Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I saw it...it was okay, I don't feel like it captured the essence of the Little Flower or her spirituality, but it was from a different perspective maybe? it's been a while since I have seen it.

Sixtina87 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 When it came to my area, it was only here for 2 weeks, i got an email from the Luke films ppl saying that is was commingot my area. So my gradnmother and i went and seen it together. i absolutely LOVE the film, i cried at the end, I for some strange reason was coughing at the end of the movie. there was only 6 ppl in the theater with us, 2 guys, a mom and daughter and me and grandma. i gave the mom and daughter a post card with St. Therese on it from the movie. A guy i know from IRl in chicago sent me a whole bunch of stuff from the premeire (sp?). He sent me this huge movie poster and about 15 post cards!!!!! If anyone knows when the movie comes out, LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
