We are celebrating the 150 year Anniversary of when the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Bernadette and told Bernadette that she was the Immaculate COnception.
Bernadette, who had trouble rememmbering things, and did not understand the meaning of what the Lady from Heaven said, was almost clobbered by her parish priest. He initially thought that Bernadette was claiming to be the Immaculate Conception.
Berndatte was just repeating exactly what the woman from heaven said: "Je Suis Immaculate Conception!" or "I am the Immaculate Conception"...
The one thing wrong with Jennifer Jones’ portrayal of Bernardette in the movie was that she made Bernadette into a clever girl when she was in fact somewhat dull.
