Disc just arrived.

12 songs in the Soundtracks. Apparently WG did her own singing.

I liked it.

However improbable that the nuns' choir could be turned around as quickly as this seems, it was great fun.

MS made a great foil as the uptight mother superior. The novice was WM, and was dubbed. HK was typecast as the killer/gangster against whom WG will testify.
