The Bells of St. Mary's


For Christmas my sons bought me the DVD of The Bells of St. Mary's. Starring Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman and filmed in 1945 , it was nominated for 8 Oscars. If you haven't seen it, and are looking for a movie "like the way they used to make'm," this one's for you!
A great story of redemption and a look at Catholic culture in America during the 40's. The scene with Sister Benedict (Ingrid Bergman) praying before the Lord in the tabernacle was really touching and well done.
