Trivia
If you look at the cane Barbara Hershey is using it is rather ornate/expensive for a nun. Even if it was given to her by someone.

A wonderfully mysteriously hauntingly beautiful story

Always a Petersen (and Hersey) fan, I remember all to clearly when this TV movie released. (Dr. Quinn) was on yet another break as the previews for this aired. I remember being captivated by Petersen's male beauty and the visual of Hersey in a habit.

Their screen chemistry is dead-on and their characters, beautifully portrayed. What struck me most was the unusual (sensual) strange chemistry between them; their obvious attraction to each other, however, the conflict of her conscious vows as a nun.

This TV movie is one of the rarer gems outside the traditional Hallmark Hall of Fame movie greats (which I was amazed that it wasn't a HHFM) A total must-see, not just for Petersen or Hersey fans, alike, but for its overall quality.
