DVD The Trouble with Angels
Actress-writer-director Ida Lupino got one of her unfortunately rare opportunities behind a camera making this 1966 family comedy about two mischievous students (Hayley Mills, June Harding) making life difficult for the nuns at a girls' convent school. Rosalind Russell has a fine part as a mother superior vexed by their pranks and outwardly chilly until the girls catch her in a more private moment of emotional release. The script has an anecdotal structure--it's sort of one thing after another with Mills's and Harding's troublemakers--but there is a rising sense that these two kids gradually develop some awareness of the pain and sacrifices of others. A fun and touching movie all around, with a nice twist at the end. --Tom Keogh
THE FILM HAS ITS SILLY MOMENTS,BUT STILL VERY ENJOYABLE FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY. HAYLEY MILLS PROVES HERSELF AGAIN TO BE A GREAT ACTRESS AND ROSALIND RUSSELL GIVES QUITE A FEW LAUGHS WITH HER SMART ALECK REMARKS AS THE MOTHER SUPERIOR;HER SCENE DEALING WITH THE DEATH OF ONE OF HER FELLOW NUNS IS MOVING AND POIGNANT.CANNOT SEE HOW ANYONE COULD NOT BE ABLE TO FIND SOMETHING ENJOYABLE IN THIS CLASSIC 60'S FILM.
Please Relesae A Widscreen DVD!.
I first saw the Trouble with Angels on TV in widescreen and I was happy when I read that this delightful movie was finally coming out on DVD but that was until I found out that it wouldn't be in widescreen but instead an edited pan and scan. What a letdown! This movie is funny and delightful and stars Rosalind Russell and Hayley Mills as a nun and student at an all girls Catholic boarding school who clash from the get go as Hayley's character is a real handful! I don't want to have an edited pan and scan DVD so I think I will wait until a widescreen DVD comes out so until than I will just tape The Trouble with Angels from that classic movie channel that always shows the movie in widescreen.
boring film
I am a fan of Haley Mills and adore her movies Pollyanna, The parent Trap, and That Darn Cat. I was very disapointed, however, with The Trouble With Angels.The first half hour was the most boring. I almost gave up on it. It did get more interesting when the pranks started, but the slap stick humor in my opinion was dumb compared to her other films. The writing was bad and the theme song horrible. I strongly suggest you don't waste your money on this film.
I first watched Where Angels Go Trouble Follows on on one of those classic movie channels and it was shown in widescreen too so why is it you can watch this movie on cable TV and the station shows it in widescreen but the DVD gets a lousy pan and scan format? Okay the first movie that starred Hayley Mills is better but this is a cute movie too and I think Stella Stevens, Rosalind Russell and Susan St. James were really good though I agree that it woukd have been nice if Hayley Mills was in this movie too.

Hayley Mills was well on her way to adulthood when she found intrigue and chaste romance on the island of Crete in this 1964 Disney attempt at Hitchcock in one of his lighter moods. That means the principals do wind up in a hearse trapped on a narrow street by celebratory but ominous masked paraders. And that seemingly good guys can and do turn out to be bad guys and vice versa. But it's Disney and Mills, so there are no deaths in this mystery, although gunplay and some scariness do earn it a PG rating. Based on the Mary Stewart novel of the same name, this 118-minute film finds Mills and her aunt visiting a Cretan village on holiday. In the face of hostility from their innkeeper's brother (Eli Wallach), the pair befriend a fellow Brit. The young man's escapades with jewel thief...

The daughter of legendary British actor John Mills and novelist Mary Hayley Bell (as well as the sister of actress Juliet Mills), young Hayley Mills broke the surface of fame at the tender age of 12, starring opposite her father in the thriller Tiger Bay. That film, along with a Berlin Film Festival award, was enough to attract the attention of Walt Disney, who promptly signed her to a five-year contract and put her in the starring role of Pollyanna. After wringing hearts and nabbing a special Oscar, Mills segued into the comedy thing--for double the fun--in The Parent Trap, the 1961 farce in which she played twins, separated at birth, who scheme to reunite their biological parents (Maureen O'Hara and Brian Keith, both surprisingly sexy for a Disney movie). On the... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Hayley Mills - Maureen O'Hara Director(s): David Swift (II) DVD Release Date: Released the 07 May 2002 This item is currently not available.

This classic 1963 Disney film features child icon Hayley Mills as Nancy Carey, a teenage girl whose family moves from Boston to the New England countryside as a result of their father's untimely passing. Nancy writes to the kindly Mr. Poppem (Burl Ives) and single-handedly convinces him to rent the family a charming, if run-down, house for a mere $60 a year. Ever the optimist, Nancy brims with excitement at the family's new life, but this "perfect world" has its problems--notably an absentee landlord who knows nothing about the Carey family's rental agreement. Through hard work and Mr. Poppem's continuing generosity, the Careys fix up the house and find life in the rural Maine town quite satisfactory. Things become tense when their cousin Julia arrives for an...

When a slightly cross-eyed Siamese cat named D.C. (Darn Cat) turns up with a wristwatch around his neck instead of a collar, it could be just the clue the FBI needs to crack a series of bank robberies in this lightweight comedy from Disney. The watch belongs to a bank teller who has been taken hostage. Dean Jones stars as the good-hearted FBI agent assigned to the case. Unfortunately, he is highly allergic to, you guessed it, cats. Hayley Mills is D.C.'s doting owner who hatches a hair-brained scheme to follow D.C.'s every move until he returns to the crooks' hideout where he got the wristwatch. After a lot of sneezing, slapstick, and comedic intrigue, the bank robbers are foiled, the hostage is safe, and everyone is happy. An impressive supporting cast of Frank Gorshin,...
