Truly in a class of its own. One for the ages, if film can be spoken of as such.

For me, it is always among my top three favorite films [since no one can have a single favorite film!]- a magnificent troubling film- nothing like it; perfectly realized. Thank you for posting this.

Thank you for sharing this documentary! It was a little hard to fully enjoy this movie with the overt racism, but it is great to have a chance to learn more about the historical context and themes of the movie.

In another time and another place, Farrar would have made the perfect James Bond.

Completely brilliant film! She said she was told she would never get as good a part again, probablytrue, but then, nobody else did either… (if you like sex crazed killer nuns running amok)
