Blue Murder at St Trinian's (1957)
Director: Frank Launder
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Jewel thief Jeffries is forced to masquerade as a St Trinian's mistress while the school is making a Grand Tour of Europe. Inventive situations utilising a classic British blend of comedy and crime make it the best (if you like this sort of thing) in the series which followed The Belles of St Trinian's. With all the regulars, plus Terry-Thomas and the legendary Sabrina as a big schoolgirl. DMcG.Author: DMcG
