Quiz
This movie is loosely based on the true story of Soeur Sourire, who had a #1 pop hit in America with "Dominique" in 1963. Unfortunately, the nun was a one-hit wonder whose life did not continue happily after her chart success. After leaving the church for a full-time music career, she ran into heavy financial problems and eventually took her own life in Belgium in 1985.

Blooper
When Sister Ann and several other convent members perform on The Ed Sullivan Show, the women are forbidden to wear stage makeup - even though all of them have been sporting obvious foundation, blush, lipstick, mascara and even false eyelashes during rest of movie.

Good music....

The film is somewhat syrupy and a bit simplistic, but correct in most essentials and, after all, quite entertaining. The music, of course, is the best thing about it...quite uplifting. "Raindrops" is my particular favorite, but the duet on "Beyond the Stars" is excellent as well. Miss Reynolds' voice is more than adequate to do justice to the music, most of which (I see from the Soundtrack listings) Sister Sourire wrote herself.
