Total Groovy Movie!

This was the sequel to "The Trouble with Angels", which was an excellent mid-'60s teen movie. To some, "Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows" was a disappointing follow-up. To me, I have always liked both very much, but I always preferred this one a little more out of the two. The reason being, it reflects the late '60s so much, it's so dated and borderline campy. This is what is appealing about the movie. The plotline is basic: a cross country trek to a religious convention, and all of the trials and tribulations the girls go through while they are on route. What 'makes' this movie is Stella Stevens as the hip & groovy liberated Nun that pickets against "the man", stands up to bikers, and later finds out what role she plays is in her students life. If you go in expecting this movie to be like the original, then you are setting yourself up for a big disappointment. If you liked other late '60s movies like "How Sweet It Is", "Impossible Years","Divorce, American Style", "Yours, Mine, and Ours" and "The Love God?", then you will definitely enjoy this late '60s groovy movie.

Trivia
The budget for this movie was so small that there was not much money for additional music. That's why the theme song is played multiple times.

Goofs
When the school bus gets stuck on the railroad tracks, they are still in Pennsylvania. The train that passes on the tracks is a Santa Fe passenger train. Santa Fe passenger trains would not have run in Pennsylvania.

Quotes
[first lines]
Sister George: [carrying a sign, returning from a protest] Not a single arrest today, Mother!
Mother Superior: [sarcastically] Don't get discouraged, I'm sure you'll do better next time.

Crazy credits
The final credits end with "And The State Contest Winners" listing eight girls from eight states where portions of the film were shot (New Mexico, Oklahoma, Illinois, Ohio, Texas, Missouri, Indiana and Pennsylvania.) Presumably each girl won a brief screen appearance that was shot when the filmmakers came to her state.
