Fondavision: Agnes of God (1985)

from We Really Like Her! · host Danita Steinberg & Emily Gagne

Get thee to a nunnery as this week's episode of FONDAVISION (a Jane Fonda miniseries from WRLH!) takes Emily and Danita to heaven and hell and back. Yes, it's time to talk 1985 nun-centric "neo-noir" AGNES OF GOD, which sees Jane playing a slightly unethical psychiatrist who is trying to help a sister (an incredibly committed Meg Tilly) out with her minor baby murder problem. What is this movie trying to say about sexual abuse within the church, if at all? Is this the most Jane has ever smoked in a movie (and with Anne Bancroft, natch)? And what's this about her and cinematographer Sven Nykvist having their own sinful confessionals between takes?!?
