It's been a long time since I've had the opportunity to watch this movie, so I've forgotten a lot, but I remember that I really enjoyed it, that it was pretty true to reality, and that most of my family was crying by the end. So have tissues ready. It's about the life of Saint Bernadette Sourbirous, but unlike the cartoons, it doesn't stop when she is still a young girl. This movie continues with her as an adult, entering the convent and having to deal with the other sisters, especially the ones who are jealous of her. She finally dies of tuberculosis in the convent. I don't remember anything bad for children, though they may not always understand what is happening.
