Nasty Habits   1977         PG, 96 min. Genre: Comedy Director: Michael Lindsay-Hogg   Cast: Glenda Jackson, Melina Mercouri, Geraldine Page, Sandy Dennis, Anne Jackson, Edith Evans, Anne Meara, Susan Penhaligon, Rip Torn, Eli Wallach   Satirizing the 1974 Watergate "burglary," this comedy is set in a Philadelphia convent where the conniving Sister Alexandra (Glenda Jackson) rules the roost (ala Nixon). Sandy Dennis, as Sister Winifred, plays the "John Dean" character to a tee. Good idea, but doesn't quite make the grade despite the good cast.
