This classic dvd, The song of Bernadette is very atmospheric and Jennifer Jones brilliant portrayal of Bernadette Soubirous, who saw beautiful visions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is excellent along with an air of honesty and truth. We are in a small town on the border of France and Spain in the mid-19th century and Bernadette (Jennifer Jones) and her family live in dire poverty. The Virgin Mary was played by Linda Darnell, soon to appear in the racy Forever Amber, and at that time engaged in a scandalous affair with 20th Century Fox boss Darryl F Zanuck. At the time of this production, Darnell was one of the highest paid stars on the 20th lot. A must to watch movie. This part was played by Linda Darnell without any billing credits. Investigating the cave, she finds a beautiful lady (Linda Darnell) standing in brilliant light, holding a pearl rosary. The Song of Bernadette is not a great film, but it is a very good film. In my acting days I performed with Linda in several stage productions and became a close friend. And, one day the subject of this movie came up in a conversation I had with her, and I remember saying that Song of Bernadette was … It’s a glow-in-the-dark Linda Darnell – oh no, it’s the Virgin Mary. They do tell, however, and the story soon spreads all over town. At the age of 24 and possessing a youthful fresh-faced beauty, she gave a convincing performance in portraying the fourteen year old Bernadette. The Song of Bernadette is a reverent recounting of the life of St. Bernadette of Lourdes. When the simple and sickly Bernadette is down by the river collecting firewood with her sister she sees a vision in a cave. It is characteristic of the kind of earnest prestige or super-spectacle picture that was always a stumbling block for an art form built on commerce and exploitation, but it is also a showcase for work by some genuinely gifted actors whose kind are no longer with us today. She tells her sister and friend, who promise not to tell anyone else. Although this movie is of yesteryear it is heart rendering and emotional to watch.
