Nuns on the Run

“From now on, it's every nun for himself!”

Brian Hope (Eric Idle) and Charlie McManus (Robbie Coltrane), two crooks a heist away from retirement, learn their boss plans to have them killed. They take the money and run, with the boss, the drug dealers they robbed, the police and Brian's furious girlfriend all behind them. Jonathan Lynn puts the pair in a training convent, passing as nuns, and Charlie keeps the habit on even as the people hunting him arrive.
