Trivialidades:

The Mother Superior dubs Deloris "Sister Mary Clarence". She states that the "Clarence" part of the moniker derives from "Saint Clarence of Concord". While there is no St. Clarence from Concord in conventional Roman Catholicism, there is a St. Clarence from Vienne who is, coincidentally, the patron Saint of prisoners.

Goofs:

Continuity: When Sister Mary Roberts gives Sister Mary Clarence the clock to help her wake up in the morning, you see Sister Mary Clarence's hand reach out for clock. In the next shot, Mary Clarence's hand reaches out for the clock again.

Quotes:

Joey: What is she doing?
Willy: Oh my God, she's praying.

Comments and review

I feel that this movie should be a classic someday. The music is outstanding. I love the way that Whoopie sings. She has a fantastic voice for the movie. I loved the Supremes and there sound.All of the actress are gifted. I could watch this movie and Sister Act 2 over and over again. They are pricless.I only wish they would have made more of them. These in my opinion are quality type of movies for the whole family.They have unlimited language and sex and violence. Theses are movie that could be shown in a church.The plot is simple but believable.This movie is timeless and priceless.It is one of Whoppie's finest movies. I mean she was good in Ghost. I really enjoy watching her in all of her movies. Whoopie is a real gifted actress that will or should keep on making movies.I would watch everyone.All I can say Whoopie deserves an Acadamy Award for her acting ability. She is always believable in any role she playes. Thank You
