Format:  
 
 
First, Lillian Gish excels as an Italian aristocrat who's driven from her estate and has her inheritance stolen by her ruthless half-sister after their father's death. After boyfriend Ronald Colman is declared dead in Arabia, Gish decides to become a nun. Gail Kane also stars in "The White Sister," a silent melodrama directed by Henry King. Then, renowned director Victor Fleming revamps "The White Sister" as a talkie. This time, Helen Hayes takes on the lead role and adds a touch of grit to the character's grace. When Hayes becomes completely grief-stricken after learning that her military beau (Clark Gable) has been killed in World War I, she decides to forgo human passion for God's love, as a nun. However, what will Hayes do when Gable miraculously returns and begs her to renounce her vows? 4 hrs. total on two discs. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo, Dolby Digital mono.
