Did you just reference Dr. Hannibal Lecter?!?? ;)

Thanks for sharing that, [b]Antigonos[/b]. I've neither read the book nor seen the movie, so it's good to hear what it is able to show and how. It sounds like a really well done story, though I could understand why some people (such as her former sisters) would feel hurt by it.

This is an accurate portrayal of religious life imo.

Hey, the sister on the right is, I think, Sister Dolores Marie. She was a novice when I was a postulant.

When I was discerning religious life I mainly checked out orders that were renowned in the areas of miniature golf and skee ball. Almost joined an order that was heavily into ping pong and water sports. All orders are different and there are many charisms so I imagine a movie would automatically be limited in presenting what it is like.

Yeah, they're such a great order. Always love their habit too. And you can't beat roller skating!

You sure have! Great pics and thank you for posting them. I especially liked the one of Sister, sunglasses and all, swinging the baseball bat with real determination and application - eyes on the ball ..........Barb
