...this sure is an interesting story line.
ReplyDeleteIt made me wanna watch it lol
DeleteHmmm. This isn't my usual type of film, but it's great to expand your horizons. I started watching All About Eve yesterday. I need to finish it but I've realized I've never seen it before. Not sure I like it, but I like the acting, the cast and dialogue too.
ReplyDeleteI've never been a Bette Davis fan. I know I'm weird lol
DeleteThis sounds very interesting, something different! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely different. It reminded me a bit of Name of the Rose.
DeleteI wanted to watch that but forgot where I had seen it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYayeee :)
DeleteNever heard of this one.
ReplyDeleteI hope you aren't roasting in this heat wave.
We are indeed roasting. But I was born here and tend to like the heat. Air conditioning saves us when it gets too bad.
DeleteFor some reason,. I find this not too uncommon, even in a nunnery.
ReplyDeleteThe medieval Church was scary.
