What I loved most about this movie was the beautiful cinematography. It is stunningly filmed and really evokes an emotion of spiritualness and the unknown in me. Meg Tilly was superb as the nun who gives birth to a baby that is then murdered. Her innocence, naietivty are portrayed with such adept skill. Jane Fonda's character was solid as well, playing a sympathetic yet inquisitive psychiatrist who wants answers. I also felt that Anne Bancroft did an adequate job, but was lacking something for me.
No easy answers in this movie, as religion and spirituality do not offer concrete answers. Thought provoking indeed and as I said, the film is so beautifully shot, it just adds to the spirituality of this movie. You won't find a tidy two hour movie but you will think about how religion is powerful behind many forces.
