Summary of Sister Act
On-the-run after witnessing her Las Vegas mobster boyfriend kill someone, a tacky lounge singer (Whoopi Goldberg) enters the Witness Protection Program - as a nun. Now the convent needs protection, from the new Sister Mary Clarence and her Vegas-style ideas on how to run the choir. A charming comedy and one of Goldberg's best movies.

This is probably Goldberg's most successful role she's done, even better than her Oscar winning role in "Ghost". This film has lots of soul music in it, which is taken back to its origins - the church. I personally liked noticing the differences...
