Nun, Interrupted would also have worked as a title for this stylish but scattershot French historical drama.
Suzanne Simonin (Pauline Etienne) isn’t religious, but that doesn’t stop her family sending her to a convent where she’s degraded and humiliated – and things get even worse when she comes under the glare of Isabelle Huppert’s rapacious mother superior.

Decent, but no Black Narcissus .
