I just finished watching the movie Black Narcissus with Deborah Kerr. I missed one of her flashbacks where it's explained why she became a nun. Can anyone fill me in?????
Why did Sister Clodagh become a nun in Black Narcissus?
For Sister Clodagh (Deborah Kerr) the 'repressed' is the desire associated with a love affair in her past with a young man who subsequently deserted her and went to America. The repression is specifically linked with her becoming a nun: it was her humiliation at his desertion that brought her into the Order.
