Worth 500 minutes of your life, and Kristen Scott Thomas is amazing!
I thoroughly enjoyed this mini-series and feel it's as poignant in 2021 as it was when made in 1993. The acting is universally outstanding. Kristen Scott Thomas is simply amazing! She's probably in 490 of the 500 minutes, and she carries every scene deftly and gracefully.
Interestingly, my wife would gives the series a B+, whereas I give it an A-. Some of the characters are one-dimensional, and arguably the plot is straightforward. However, the strength of the performances and the directing outweigh those elements in my opinion. Also, the journey is often more interesting than the destination.
There are few series that so significantly explore many aspects of living a nun's life, which I find compelling and interesting, as well.
Of note, the third episode is slow, but stick with it because the story picks up strongly again in episode four, and stays that way through the finish.
Body & Soul is well worth your consideration, offers a compelling set of characters and story, and presents extremely well long after it's making. You should absolutely give it a go and will likely find much to enjoy.
