"I Must Keep My Promise To The Lady" ~ Encountering The Heavenly Fire August 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I absolutely love the '43 film 'The Song of Bernadette'. Jennifer Jones is magnificent in the role of the naive, but intuitive young Bernadette who was graced with a series of 18 visions of a beautiful Maiden from Heaven who identified herself as the "Immaculate Conception". Everything works to perfection in this film; production values, music and cast as well as providing an honest re-telling of the events that begun on February 11, 1858.
Unlike the several other films on the life and visions of Bernadette that were produced in the years to follow, this version is the only one that chose to actually show the vision to the audience rather than rely on the ecstatic expression of the young seer to convey the presence of the "Lady in White". I must say the director made the right decision in this matter and pulled it off beautifully.
You don't have to be a Catholic to recognize a classic when you see one!
dissapointed August 3, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was very dissapointed with the DVD Song Of Bernadette as I was unable to view it ,I tried to play it on my DvD and it said it could not be played as it was the wrong code ,I tried on my computer to view it and had the same message "cant be played wrong code" so I am very reluctant to purchase anything again through Amazon.com

A Beautiful Account, Wonderfully Portrayed May 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As the Church Fathers say: "of the Blessed Virgin Mary, one can never have enough", and this film certainly bears that out. Great casting and top-grade performances make this an excellent film for the whole family, and a timely reminder of these Marian apparitions (people are still being healed at the miraculous spring at Lourdes).
