A landmark of the French New Wave, Jacques Rivette’s “The Nun”, adapted from Denis Diderot’s novel, follows a rebellious nun (played by an incandescent Anna Karina) who is forced into taking her vows. Initially shunted into a restrictive, torturous convent, she eventually moves on to a more liberated one, where she becomes an object of the Mother Superior’s obsession.
