Description
"Father O'Malley is a priest on a mission to help revitalize the financially-strapped parochial school St. Mary's. O'Malley's assignment, to determine if St. Mary's should be abandoned due to its decline, soon has him butting heads with the school's headstrong manager, Sister Benedict. But their squabbles are rendered inconsequential with the arrival of Horace P. Bogardus, a skin-flint businessman set on seeing St. Mary's condemned to make way for a parking lot. This tale of a devoted pair fighting against the odds has been delighting audiences for generations"--Container.
