Summary: Strange, funny, with good performances, by Palin, et. al.
Review: This movie, about a missionary, who comes back from Africa, and is about to get married to his highly organised [British spelling] fiance, is given an assignment by his bishop, to "convert" the "fallen women" (prostitutes) of England. With funny performances by Palin, Maggie Smith (stunningly attractive in an aristocratic way), Phoebe Nicholls, as his future wife (you have to see the movie to see if he marries her), and others, presents a wickedly funny look at a man who seeks to do good, in the face of temptation. Not bad.
