Hey!!!

So, I apparently lost the other EWTN schedule I had and picked up another one today.

[i]The Nun[/i] will be playing again on EWTN Global Showcase on [b]March 6th at 2pm[/b].

Since it's showing in the U.S., I'm PRAYING for the English subtitles, as well!

Surely, the EWTN schedule planners are merciful to us one-language speakin' 'mercans...

I watched it when it aired last night, and yes, it was in English subtitles.

It was lovely...my only complaint is that I wish they had included more on her life in cloister, because there was very little film aside from a few scenes of her in solitary prayer, and of her in the parlour with her family. However, I know it was a great dispensation to be able to film at all.

It was amazing to learn about her life at home. Wow, what a blessing to be raised in such a devout family!

My friends recorded it for me since they have a TiVO Now THAT'S using technology for the right reasons!

[Cherie]

I saw that documentary a few years ago. The young nun was not interviewed by a Catholic, or a believer for that matter, so the interviewer's questions and the way she edited the video clearly show it from a "secular" (read: "OMGoodness this is SOO weird") perspective, which is something I never like in a video about religious.

However, I think it showed some good points and was fairly good, overall. I'm not sure where the Sisters got it from (that's where I watched it) but I'll see if I can find it available anywhere.

Just watched the 2:00 airing on EWTN. And yes, sub-titles were included. Enjoyed it a lot. Her little brother...sweet...he loved his sister, Marta, so much. Heart-wrenching separation for all when Marta left. What a family!
An amazing vocation...so beautiful to watch.
Thanks for the reminders to tune in.

Reminds me of the scene in the movie about St Teresa of the Andes where she enters Carmel and her non-believing brother breaks down. So sad.

I just watched it today! Turns out a parishoner is related to this family somehow! Now I can ask him questions on the follow-up with the family.

But WOW ... the movie was so beautiful! It left me so convicted & even more in love with religious life!

Oh wow! That is really cool! Perhaps you'd be able to share a bit on your follow-up?

I'll be watching it tomorrow! (Thank God for DVR and a generous friend that recorded the film for me! )
