When a nightclub singer is forced to take refuge from the mob in a convent, she ends up turning the convent choir into a soulful chorus complete with a Motown repertoire, until the sudden celebrity of the choir jeopardizes her identity.
Entertaining vehicle for Whoopi Goldberg with fine support from Maggie Smith, Harvey Keitel and Mary Wickes. Hardly believable but it doesn't matter. It's a crowd-pleaser that deserves its popularity.
