I'm not a Catholic and knew nothing about Therese before going to the movie. I was touched by her simplicity, and her childlike, not childish, faith. The movie is slow going. It spends too much time before the convent and not enough time in the convent. But it does show how a spoiled, pampered child became a simple seeker of holiness. However, I wish I had seen more of her growth in the convent. We were shown touches only. I was moved to order her autobiography. This is a film that will leave you peaceful.[/b][/color]

[color=red]INSPIRATIONAL STORIES OF THERESE[/color]



[color=purple]"Ever since I saw THERESE, my heart has been feeling happy, as if I want to help everyone and do great deeds."[/color]

-11-year-old fan of Saint Therese


[color=blue]From around the country, we are hearing stories of miraculous events surrounding the THERESE motion picture. People of all ages and different faiths have been affected by Therese’s simple message. Watching the movie has prompted many to explore a religious calling, while priests have felt confirmed in their choice of vocation. Entire auditoriums have been filled with people moved to tears by this contemplative film. And perhaps most remarkably, several people have reported smelling roses as they watched the movie.

Do you have a story related to the viewing of THERESE? We want to hear them! Send your stories to us at [email=info@theresemovie.com]info@theresemovie.com[/email]. Some will be placed on the website to share the inspirational tales with other devotees of Saint Therese.[/color]

FRENCH TRANSLATION VOLUNTEER NEEDED

Luke Films is looking for someone to help us with occasional French translation. There is not a large amount of translation to be done – usually just one or two pages of English text per week. If anyone would be willing to offer their help with French translation, please contact us at [EMAIL]spanishpr@theresemovie.com [/EMAIL][/color]


THERESE SOUNDTRACK STILL AVAILABLE [img]http://www.bizart.com/christmas/images/ball3.gif[/img]

For the first time ever, the inspirational music created by Sister Marie Therese Sokol O.C.D. for the THERESE motion picture can be yours! Sister Marie Therese, an accomplished composer and cellist, is a cloistered Carmelite nun. Her music brings a feminine sensitivity and romantic sensibility, and is a beautiful reflection of her deep spiritual understanding of Therese.

"This movie soundtrack is one of the most beautiful I have ever heard," says Del Spiva, music editor for such movies as Pearl Harbor, Blackhawk Down, Spiderman, and The Last Samurai. "It is worth sending to the Academy Awards because of its distinguished merit."

The striking spiritual soundtrack, with magnificent and prayerful expressions of each character and moment in the film, was meticulously composed. In Mr. Defilippis’ own words, "Sister Marie Therese and I planned out very carefully the themes for many of the characters, but particularly for the climactic moments in the film, such as the death of Thérèse’s mother, the Christmas conversion, the trial of faith, and the Joan of Arc play. The composer’s discoveries and her musical translations of our conversations became a spiritual retreat for both of us. As you listen, think of heaven, and the music will lead you to a higher realm."

Sincerely in Christ,

I got the soundtrack a few days ago and it is wonderful. I was listening to it tonight, and my Mom asked me to turn it up.

Hmmmm, maybe she'll get into St. Therese too....

Hmmm, now there's an idea. Maybe I'll have to pick up a copy to leave her when I leave. My Dad just died unexpectedly and Therese would make a good companion for my Mom when I leave. Thanks Donna.
