as the title suggests, it is about the life of a Religious. There are various characters in the screenplay, reflecting differing attitudes within the religious order. I assume they are missionary sisters who work, among other places, in the Belgian Congo. I never did see the film. In the conclusion, the lead character quits the convent. Other films dealing with the female religious life include Black Narcissus- it should be carefully understood these were Anglican nuns, not RC., The trouble with angels- which was almost a situation comedy set in a convent, and in part, others such as The Sound of Music. almost entirely convent-oriented was Agnes of God, which was based in part on the the Rochester incident of the late 70"s. That"s a sampler.

The Oscar was posthumously presented to Trumbo's widow on May 10th, 1993, after the Academy decided to correct the records.Sabrina is also one of Audrey's more famous movies, made the year after Roman Holiday.

This movie too was very popular, and won 8 Oscars!

Sister Mary
A nun.Another answerTechnically, she is called a 'sister'. 'Nun' is a special sort of sister belonging to a particular order. Secular usage has made the two terms seem the same, but within the Church, there is a distinction. All nuns are sisters, but not all sisters are nuns. Officially, she is called a "sister". Nun is a special sort of sister belonging to a cloister, abbey or monastery, as they all belong, not to an order, but to a religious congregation. Maybe "The Nun Story" movie explains the widespread confusion although I believe Audrey Hepburn was a "cloistered nun". They the "Sister Act" film reinforced that duplicity as Whoopy Goldberg wore the habit of a Sister of St. Joseph who lived in a ... nunnery!
Nuns are typically associated with the Catholic denomination of Christianity, as well as some branches of the Eastern Orthodox Church. However, nuns also exist in other religions such as Buddhism and Jainism.
