The Miraculous Life of Thérèse Martin

Julien Duvivier, 1929 (France). Simone Bourday, André Marnay, and Janine Borelli in the leads. It is a " stark and striking biographical account of the late 19th century Discalced Carmelite nun who died at age 24 from tuberculosis and was canonized in 1925." The film is based on the spiritual autobiography Thérèse wrote, L'Histoire d'une âme. The same material inspired Alain Cavalier's film Thérèse. Foreign print; rights flagged unverified.
