Lid closed, monkey dead.
Maybe thirty years ago, or a bit longer, I faintly remember watching a film about a convent.
This has only crept up in my memory due to Richard Nixon appearing in the "Whose face is this" forum!
I don't recall any of the cast and I've only vague memories of the plot.
Here goes....
There is a lot of political infighting in this convent, an inner circle are jockeying for power and the Mother Superior role. I think the existing one was either Ill or very old.
There was one nun and a small entourage who went around visiting other orders of nuns and she was playing like a Henry Kissinger role but also building up her influence.
Back at the convent another of the circle was doing a Tricky Dicky, she had hidden surveillance devices planted around, hoping for indiscretions. I think she also had an enforcement squad to plant fake evidence of wrong doings.
It seemed like a satire on Watergate and the politics of the time.
Anyone?
Cheers
