Francis of Assisi Movie

I watched the 1961 movie about St. Francis of Assisi. I cannot help but think about how God always shows us his will. Did you know the young actress who played St. Clare became a Benedictine nun a few years after it came out. She entered an order in Connecticut. In a world that so reveres Hollywood, it is so hard to imagine that she would do that. Of course, God knew what he was doing. He always does. Dolores Hart, the girl who played St. Clare, and the girl who kissed Elvis (and her first kiss at that, with Elvis's first film debut) would become Mother Dolores Hart. So as I watched this movie, I could not help but think about the foreshadowing in the actress's life.
