Mary
Clancy (Hayley Mills) and Rachel Devery (June Harding) meet for the first time
when they arrive as students at the St. Francis Academy, a Catholic boarding
school for girls, in St Francisville, run by Mother
Superior (Rosalind Russell).
The
girls immediately become firm friends and partners in crime in their many
pranks, including setting off fire alarms, smoking cigars in the basement, and
putting bubble baths in the nuns' sugar bowls.
After
three years the girls mature and gain a greater respect for their teachers and
what makes them tick and learn an appreciation of the commitment and devotion
they show in their lives as Sisters, so much so that one of them makes a
life-changing decision.
The long suffering Sisters, Celestine, Constance, Clarissa, Liguori, Rose
Marie, Barbara, Elizabeth, Ursula, Margaret and Prudence are played by Binnie
Barnes, Camilla Sparv, Mary Wickes, Marge Redmond, Dolores Sutton, Margalo
Gillmore, Portia Nelson, Marjorie Eaton, Barbara Bell Wright and Judith Lowry.
