LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

mterr53851 I saw this movie when it first came out..as a ten year old it grabbed me because of my deep abiding respect for the Nuns . I went to a Catholic school in 1961 with a much better view of what the Sisters stood for...this is a great movie and yes it is too bad it's not on VHS or DVD ..and I don't know why no-one in the movie business is not pushing the issue to put this movie on tape for public distribution...the same goes with "Something is Out There" another great made for TV movie..and a few other made for TV movies...come on Movie industry wake up and fly right the "BUYING" public is out here waiting!!! Can ya hear the Thunder??

sol- An appropriately solemn and always very compelling Holocaust era film, it is quite competently acted, especially by the child actors and actresses, who give off realistic and believable performances. In particular, Rebecca Dignam stands out as a child who the nuns take a special liking to. The plot line sounds rather ordinary but it works well, providing a fine and interesting tale. The film is, however, a bit too melodramatic, and on top of that it ends unrealistically. But for what it is, it is very good. Based on a story by Adrian Scott, it went credited to Dale Pitt due to blacklisting, but either way Robert Presnell Jr.'s screenplay is generally fine.

philphoto My Mother took me to see this film at the Lowestoft Odeon around 1960 (I was 8) . Why I remember it is that the Cinema Manager told my Mother that the film was on its first screening in the UK even before London (dunno why) and there would be a surprise after the film. The surprise was the Actor Ronald Lewis who came on stage . Unfortunately some of the audience hissed him which put him off a little-he said 'Im one of the Good Guys' or words to that effect but then gave us an interesting talk about making the film. I didn't understand the movie at the time really but seeing it this afternoon was the first time since then. The film showed the Italian troops in a good, professional light when our Dads at the time told us that they had 'chased them all over North Africa'

gelashe I saw this movie as a little girl with my mom. I was too young to understand or appreciate it. I got the opportunity to see it in my twenties and never forgot it. The last time it was shown, I taped it and have never seen it on T. V. again.The courtyard scene at the end is what I remember most. Other memorable scenes are: the nuns hiding the children at the bottom of the farmer's wheelbarrel while a Nazi officer stabs a pitchfork into it to make sure it is really garbage underneath, the German nun who was angry at hiding the children at the beginning, later winds up saving one of them by hiding her under her habit and the beginning of the film when the nuns asked a little girl her name, and she replies "Jew Dog". She said she had been called that so many times by the Germans that she forgot her real name, and at Yom Kippur when the children read the names of their families who are all dead. This is a wonderful movie. It is a shame it is not available on video or shown on cable.Lily Palmer as the Mother Superior is outstanding especially noting her beauty.
