"Lourdes" (2009)

There are up to 7 movies scheduled for Turner Classic Movies Tuesday-Wednesday program of "Women Make Film." The most interesting ones usually are unavailable for streaming, so I usually end up with an "also-ran" film. However, here's an interesting French film about Lourdes and a group of hopeful pilgrims seeking a divine cure. Christine, locked into a wheelchair, suffers from Cerebral Palsy and goes on such pilgrimages to "get out in the world." In short, definitely not a pious/God-fearing person. But something happens one evening, and the world opens up for her. Is this a Miracle? Will it last? Do the other pilgrims resent her for "being blessed" instead of them? Come along on a hike up a steep mountain trail...
