I saw this film when I was young, and I have never forgotten it. There are certain scenes of compassion and courage that have been with me ever since. The decision to do the right thing in spite of the consequences is upheld in the portrayal of the nuns, the priest, the rabbi and even the soldiers ordered to shoot the nuns. The lesson that to be good and godly means to personally involve oneself in direct,compassionate intervention on behalf of those in need is clearly shown and lauded, as is the truth that love and compassion can know no ethnic nor religious boundaries. It is a good movie, especially for the young. I would hope that it could be made available for purchase.
