The Song of Bernadette November 25, 2008 Excellent family movie with a tear-jerker ending. Cast of A-list actors from the old days.
Never Diminishes With Age, Inspirational Even Now. November 5, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
While America was involved in out Civil War, a young woman named Bernadette in France was having a war of her own. She was abused and not believed when she worshiped God in her own way through a 'lady' who appeared only to her and a miracle grotto with healing waters in an unusual place. It was strange that no one else could see the apparition of Mary or hear her requests of Bernadette. I remember the first time I saw this movie as a college freshman in a small town movie theater. Her trials and tribulations were perfectly acted by newcomer Jennifer Jones, who went on to win the Academy Award for her performance.
A song, The Village of St. Bernadette , was recorded by Andy Williams. Pat Boone recorded "Bernadene, Why Can't You be True" about the same time. These were two distinctly opposites, but made the charts. Pilgrimages to Lourdes to Bernadette's shrine still exist. As an adult, she devoted her life to the church and, after her death, was proclaimed Saint Bernadette. She was the only person able to see the Beautiful Lady or hear her requests. Vincent Price, star of Poe's films, was a French squire and almost as handsome as Mark.
Wonderful Faith-filled Movie October 28, 2008 My whole family just finished watching "The Song of Bernadette" - the great classic movie staring Jennifer Jones which tells the story of St. Bernadette, a young peasant girl who was chosen by God to see the Blessed Mother at Lourdes. I had read the story of St. Bernadette to my two boys (ages 7 and 6) a while ago so they knew the general plot and they really did enjoy the movie. My six-year old even cried at the end when St. Bernadette died. My husband and I had seen it before, but it had been a long time. It was definitely worth a second look. It is a great, faith-inspiring story.
