Dolores Van Cartier (Whoopi Goldberg) is a loud singer in a las vegas lounge bar who is in love with a criminal. After receiving a present off her boyfriend Vice and seeing it is Vinces wifes coat marches up to his office only to witness his men shooting another bloke. Dolores goes to the police and tells them everything and the officer puts Dolores into a convent in another state in america where she becomes sister mary clarence when first meeting the mother superior (Maggie Smith) the mother superior doesnt get along with dolores who has to work and pray till she has to testify in court. Dolores/Mary Clarence eventually joins the choir practice and helps them to sound like a harmony not like a droaning noise and the church starts to fill up with her music which Dolores makes the music more up beat and it annoys the mother superior. Dolores manages to get the mother superior to let the nuns out into the community to tidy it up. Whoopi Goldberg is a fantastic actress and along side Maggie Smith, who is also a great actor, makes this film a classic.
This is one of my favourite films with whoopi goldberg in it as she is a funny actress and i like the way she played the nun Dolores. The music that they sing in this film is so lovely that you just want to sing along with the songs. I would recommend people watched this film if they have not already seen it.

To have a higher rating - talk about the Cast and their acting. Who was outstanding and who needs to do more homework? There must be a Con to this, mention the disadvantages and comment on why you think this. If it's a DVD, review and list the extras. I hope this helps and let me know how you do - KupoX
