Dividing the different voice tones in separate yet close groups, listening to the others when they sing, being balanced, having confidence, daily hard work and efforts - she's giving a great practical lesson of music in here ! These are the basis that ANY performer should keep in mind and practice.

What she just said at the end of this scene is sooo true. In order to harmonize, you need to listen to each other. Otherwise, you can't work together to make the music work.

Kathy Najimy was hysterical in this movie LOL

Go ahead Sister, make 'em sing...I've seen a LOT of films in my day and that remains one of my most favourite ever lines!

Now i've noticed: 1- She's given the baton, but she never uses it. She has the authority, but she prefers to speak, making them understand, not obey 2- She applies her own advice: she listens to them. To ALL of them. She heard the one who wasn't singing only after one second of horrible singing. She may be a sub par nun, but she's a good singer ^_^

When Sister Clarence took over: The magic happened and that was the best; especially after everything was smoothed out. Lol. Great movie. The second movie was a great follow-up!

I love this scene. It is so hilarious. Sister Mary Roberts is always my favorite. An „A with an attitude“. Hahaha. I like that.

I would say that no one with the money wants to risk it with something like this. A fart is a shallow but assured laugh, in here, like "Mary Clarence" says, we need to listen. And we know that those with the money go for the easiest humor nowadays. I assure you, there's a lot of intelligent writers out there. They are just kept down...

I like that she lets them get excited about their mini-victory -- singing a chord for 2 seconds -- doesn't tell not to be happy, but cautions them that the real work is just beginning. She doesn't let them rest on their laurels or get big heads about the small triumph. And so it doesn't feel trite or pandering, because it has that dose of reality, there.

I love the fact that Wendy Makkena and Kathy Najimy auditioned for this movie with the same song...the ladies invited to audition were asked to prepare something to assess their singing voices, their choice.

2:25 man I piss myself laughing every time I watch this part 😂😂😂 Whoopi getting a fright, the nun in front of her getting a fright, the sister with that crazy loud voice, how flat they are 😂😂 funniest movie
