[box] Mary Clancy: I’ve got the most scathingly brilliant idea![/box]
About as cute as any convent comedy has the right to be.
Mary Clancy (Haley Mills) and Rachel Devery (June Harding) become fast friends immediately upon arrival at St. Francis Academy for Girls. The imaginative Mary keeps them in trouble with Mother Superior (Rosalind Russell) for the next several years.
I saw this on original release. It remains a fairly entertaining family comedy.
