"The Trouble with Angels" (1966)


A "scathingly brilliant" guilty pleasure. The (mis)adventures of two teenagers in an all-girl Catholic high school, they're the prankster thorns in the side of the teaching nuns. Hayley Mills is the stronger personality who meets her match in the stoic Mother Superior played by the great Rosalind Russell in one of her better late career roles. Episodic fun with two junior Lucy and Ethels...but get ready for the surprisingly poignant ending. One of my favorites.
