I am trying to remember the name of a movie I saw about 10 years ago. It is a pretty old movie and I saw it on TV and have tried searching for it on DVD and VHS but haven't had any luck. I thought it was titled something like "5th street irregulars". It is a comedy about a church community trying to save their church. They just got a new paster with two children. The church burns down and the women of the church try to get money from convicts to save the church. These older women disguised themselves which is pretty funny. There is a big car chase and I can remember one of the women breaking her long red nails in the car chase. It has been a long time since I have seen this - but I am hoping someone can please help me!
