I, the Worst of All 1990  R, 105 min.
Genre: Foreign / Drama
Director: Maria Luisa Bemberg
Cast: Assumpta Serna, Dominique Sanda, Hector Alterio, Lautaro Murua, Alberto Segado, Franklin Caicedo, Graciela Araujo, Gerardo Romano, Hugo Soto, Margara Alonso
Sister Juana Ines de la Cruz (Assumpta Serna) had a good life in the convent since entering at age 19 in 17th-century Mexico. She spent time teaching music, studying and writing poetry, and other activities. This tragic real-life story of one of Mexico's greatest poets takes a turn for the worse during this time in history, which followed a brutal inquisition. A woman-hating Archbishop arrives who believes the Sister's ideas are radical and that she is dangerous. A well-made film that is somewhat long, thus distracting from the story. Based on a book ("The Pitfalls of Faith") by poet/writer Octavio Paz.

Nostradamus then moves to a remote village where he marries a widow, Anne (Assumpta Serna), with whom he begins a large family. At Scalinger's urging, Nostradamus begins writing and publishes a book of prophecies that includes the forecast of King Henry II's (Anthony Higgins) death. After seeing the book, Queen Catherine de Medici (Amanda Plummer) takes an interest and, later, after the King dies, gives Nostradamus lifelong protection from the Inquisition court, and he continues his prophecies.
