St. Trinian's (2007)
Synopsis
St Trinians proudly continues to represent the unacceptable face of British education. When the new Minister of Education announces he will personally sort the place out he doesn't realise either the enormity of the task or that the headmistress is an old flame. The school is anyway threatened with closure by their bank; with the staff clearly a waste of space the girls realise the responsibility to save the day falls on them. Perhaps a painting popularised by Scarlett Johansson might be the way out?

• The painting the girls are stealing is called Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003), which is also the title of a movie in which Colin Firth played the painter of that picture co-starring Scarlett Johansson.
• The animated sequence during the heist plan are a stylistic nod to the original 'St. Trinian's' cartoons drawn by Ronald Searle that inspired the movies.
• The movie was inspired by the original drawings of the girls of St. Trinians by Ronald Searle.
• George Cole who played Flash Harry in the original series of films was offered a very tiny cameo, which he rejected.
• The concept and name for St Trinian's was originally taken by Ronald Searle from St Trinnean's school in Edinburgh, which was established by Miss C. Fraser Lee and opened on 4 October 1922 with sixty girls, at 10 Palmerston Road. The school has since closed down, and is now Edinburgh University's Pollock Halls (of Residence). The school's existence became widely known when it advertised a reunion coffee party for old girls in The Scotsman in September 1955. By this time the fictional school was very well-known; the typesetter incorrectly used Searle's spelling in the advertisement. In an interview with the "Sunday Express" the headmistress firmly denied that her girls were anything like their fictional counterparts.
