The Nun's Story (1959) starring Audrey Hepburn, Peter Finch, Edith Evans, Peggy Ashcroft, Dean Jagger. In 1930, the young nun Sister Luke (Hepburn) works to find her way in her religious order. Her first assignment, because she has shown a lack of humility and obedience, is to a mental hospital in Brussels. But she soon earns a posting to the Congo, which is her true desire. Once there, she continues to struggle with pride and disobedience. Then the true test comes -- she is reassigned to Europe and World War II breaks out. The nuns are not supposed to take sides, but can Sister Luke obey? The answer may surprise you. Good subtitles. Grade: B+
