It was so poorly acted and had terrible splicing between scenes where her hairstyle would change in the middle of a scene and so on. now, granted the actress was lovely and did a pretty good job, the scenery was gorgeous but I suppose I couldn't get over the aforementioned scenes!<BR/><BR/>JOA was incredible though and so brave. Particularly interesting are the writings on her divine revelations. I've read a fair bit about it.Mmmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379020705220234984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636364949017025470.post-3914799761237421892008-08-03T18:05:00.000-04:002008-08-03T18:05:00.000-04:00Thank you, Tammy and welcome to Willow Manor...hop...Thank you, Tammy and welcome to Willow Manor...hope you come back again soon. :)Tess Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04889725786678984293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636364949017025470.post-44608083904549312542008-08-03T15:36:00.000-04:002008-08-03T15:36:00.000-04:00Great post, as always!
