- Quotes
Ann: The minute I'm finished I'm going straight up to Matron.
Mary: No - don't.
Ann: Lucy deliberately got me into trouble.
Mary: I know, but squealing on someone is the worst thing you can do in a place like this - it's a sort of unofficial rule. If you do, everybody will be against you.
Ann: Everybody is already. Except you.
Mary: But it will make things worse for you, Ann. Believe me - I know.
Ann: She can't keep getting away with it.
Mary: Anything else you might do - anything - any of the girls would forgive you. But narking, telling on someone - none of the girls would ever forgive you for that, even if it wasn't them you narked on.
Tom is really dumb. His ex is caught stealing and his new girlfriend is supposedly her partner. Sometimes, I call movie characters too dumb to live. Tom starts out as one of those. In the real world, he would be called to testify. In order to make the movie not dumb, he needs to be scared of being pulled into the whole affair. He wouldn't want to be called a co-conspirator. Anyways, it would be better for the story to have him abandon her. It needs to be her alone against the world. As for her escape, she needs a better reason like Miss Smith telling her that she is going to hang her next. Like a lot of this movie, the writing is not quite well thought out. This is not good enough to be taken serious and it's definitely not camp.
