Sœur Angélique (1909)
Directed by Michel Carré
Drama, Fantasy · 12m
André de Santis, a young French officer, leaves for the war in despair for the cancelling of his marriage to Jeanne de Chazal. Jeanne entered the convent and became Sister Angélique. André, not far from the convent, was mortally wounded. He wrote to Jeanne asking her to come and receive his last breath. But the rule was strict, and Sister Angélique could not leave the convent. However, the statue of the Virgin before which Jeanne was prostrating came to life, descended from its pedestal, and took on the appearance of Sister Angélique, seemingly granting her the permission she had refused. Jeanne then went to close her ex-fiancé's eyes and then returned to the convent, where the Virgin resumed her original form.
