Hayley Mills and June Harding run amok at a Catholic bordering school, causing the nuns no end of grief. Essentially, it's an updating of The Belles of St. Trinian's, but with sympathetic characters on both sides of the student-teacher gap. Rosalind Russell plays Mother Superior; it takes both cunning and patience for her to bring these girls up without going mad in the process. The rest you can probably figure out on your own without seeing the movie -- but however predictable, the film is amusing, occasionally very much so.
