Description

The story of a peasant girl Bernadette Soubirous, a poverty-stricken, pure hearted adolescent, who saw a vision, of a "Beautiful Lady" near her home town of Lourdes in 1858. The wondrous news spreads rapidly throughout France, leaving in its wake a variety of consequences: adoration, suspicion and greed among the people of Lourdes skepticism from the town doctor (Lee J. Cobb) charges of insanity from the town prosecutor (Vincent Price) threats of physical punishment, then support and guidance from the Dean of Lourdes (Charles Bickford), who finally becomes convinced that the miracle has, indeed, taken place. Winner of four Academy Awards, including Best Actress and Best Score, this true story is both first-rate filmmaking and an inspiring tribute to faith, courage and the human spirit.

    A childhood experience, memory ... a good one. An emotionally intense and beautiful true story, you have to experience it perhaps to understand. Jennifer Jones is stunning.

    This movie can be purchased. Just tap the SD and you can buy it for $9.99. This for the reviewer who asked why it wasn't for sale.

    This is a wonderful inspirational movie! I have a VHS copy of the movie and I have seen it many times. I wanted a copy for my computer so I can watch it anytime. I think everyone should see the movie at least once.

    This is truly a beautiful movie. Yes the trailor is more old Hollywood PR than movie clips, but this is real acting by a youthful actress. The story and the performances are captivating. Rent if you choose, but I really think at least 90% of you that rent this one will want to buy it. Take care and enjoy!!
