Asked if she thought the people making the film would care about her protest, she said: "I don't suppose they do, but that doesn't matter tuppence to me. It matters to me what God thinks, not what the film crew think."When I face Almighty God, at my final judgment, as we all will, I can say, I did try my best, I did try my best to protest..."
And later in the article:
The Very Rev Alec Knight and the cathedral chapter are said to have agreed to let filming take place after the film's producers made a £100,000 donation. Sister Mary accused the Cathedral of the sin of simony - conducting financial transactions involving spiritual goods."The Church should not be accepting money for something that is not a true story," she said. They should be praying more, and then the money would come in. To a believer, any believer, what is happening is blasphemous."
In case it's not clear, this is about an Anglican cathedral. The Catholic Archdiocese of Westminster turned the producers down.
Also, the powers that be at Westminster Abbey (Anglican) turned the project down. I applaud this nun for her courageous witness -- not an easy thing to do in this day and age w/out producing scorn from those who've lapped up that crummy book like it was pure cream. In addition to the theological errors, it's poorly written and plotted -- the whole story takes place in 24 hours, fer pete's sake! I really don't understand why it's still on the best-seller lists after all this time. Guess you could call them B.S. lists -- 'cause that's what DVC is -- 100%, best-quality junk!
Ok - so it was early. I'll change.
