Miracle of St. Therese
VHS
This is the acclaimed dramatic
feature film made in France in 1960 that tells the story of the life of
Therese of Lisieux from childhood through her death as a Carmelite nun
at age 24. Film critics have called it “an excellent, reverent biopic”
on St. Therese that accurately portrays the saint’s story and her unique
spirituality in a very appealing performance by French actress France
Descaut. The movie offers numerous glimpses into Therese’s “little way”
of spiritual childhood, (her particular charism that helped make her a
Doctor of the Church) including situations of conflict between Therese
and her mother prioress regarding her conviction of striving for
perfection with confidence and trust in the mercy and love of God.
Beautifully filmed in black and white, with fine performances by the
whole cast, this film is an unsung cinematic gem that captures the
spirit and life of the beloved St. Therese.
“Blending historical drama with
elements of documentary, Miracle of Saint Thérèse effectively
brings the saint’s story and spirituality to life... Beautifully shot in
black and white, the film makes excellent use of convincing locations,
sets and costumes, and is persuasively mounted throughout.”
