Trailer and Clip of Mischa Barton in St. Trinian’s
August 12, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
I’m out of the loop on these "St. Trinian" movies, but apparently, they date back to 1954 (starring Alastair Sim; no connection to the current movies, though!), with the latest being "St. Trinian’s: School for Bad Girls," which is a sequel to 2007’s "St. Trinian’s."
St. Trinian’s is an infamous school for "young ladies" that’s in a dire financial crisis. The banks are threatening headmistress Camilla Fritton (Rupert Everett – yes, he’s playing a woman) with closure, and her unorthodox methods of free expression and self empowerment aren’t looked upon kindly by the new Education Minister Geoffrey Thwaits (Colin Firth). Complicating things: He’s an old flame of Camilla’s who’s determined to bring order and discipline to the school.
The girls decide to rise up and take control, with the help of Head Girl Kelly (Gemma Arterton) and artful dodger Flash Harry (Russell Brand) to defeat the establishment. The movie hits theaters Oct. 2, 2009.
