After two years of twisting in the wind under a pair of terrible titles (the current one isn't great, but it beats "The Hairy Bird") and a stint in direct-to-video oblivion, this smart and sassy teen comedy about life in an all-girls prep school in the early '60s
finally gets its due. Dismayed to discover their daughter's brand new diaphragm, Odette "Odie" Sinclair's (Gaby Hoffman) parents ship her off to Miss Godard's Preparatory School for Girls before she can use it. Odie is convinved that between the "high walls and lesbians" she'll be undersexed and
miserable, and giggling roommates Trina von Steffen (Kirsten Dunst) and Tinka Parker (Monica Keena) aren't exact...
