Lisa and I went to see the movie this afternoon. Very well done! I'd seen a French version years ago, but this was better. You really do get a sense of the extraordinary love between the Martin sisters and their father, and also their deep, Catholic faith.

Therese is played by a lovely young woman who is thoroughly human and yet madly in love with God. No frills or frivolous piety in her at all! Her message is simple, yet powerful: small acts of charity in the nitty-gritty affairs of daily life transform one into a saint. And that she was, and is.
