Michael Palin (A Fish Called Wanda) and Maggie Smith (Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood) star in this delectable, wicked little comedy (Playboy) that puts a devout missionary into a precarious position! Reverend Charles Fortescue (Palin) has a problem. His boss, the bishop (Denholm Elliott), wants him to minister to the city's fallen women. But when Fortescue begins recruiting converts from the streets, he discovers that these lusty ladies are only willing to submit to salvation if they are permitted to share his bed! Hilarious and sexy, The Missionary is charming [and] buoyant (The New York Times)!
Stuff With More Than One Monty Python Member In It!Fierce CreaturesJohn Cleese, Michael Palin, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline, and Robert Lindsay (II) (DVD - 1998) Please Click the Cart to Purchase or Hover Over to Preview the CD 
In an attempt to catch lightning in a bottle, Monty Python veteran John Cleese wrote this slapstick farce for the purpose of reuniting the comedic cast of A Fish Called Wanda. Fierce Creatures is all about a media mogul (Kevin Kline) who owns a London zoo. He demands that the park raise more profit, so the new zoo director (Cleese) orders that only dangerous animals be displayed in order to maximize ticket sales. In a dual role, Kline also plays the mogul's son, who plans to run the zoo with the help of displaced employees (including Michael Palin) and zoo programmer Willa Weston (Jamie Lee Curtis). The situation lends itself to comedic confusion and split-second timing, and for a few good laughs the film is a pretty safe bet.
A Fish Called Wanda John Cleese, Michael Palin, Maria Aitken, Al Ashton, Roger Brierley, and Ken Campbell (DVD - 1999) Please Click the Cart to Purchase or Hover Over to Preview the CD 
Tour-de-force performances from an unparalleled comic cast highlight this much-loved hit that Roger Ebert calls "the funniest movie I have seen in a long time!" Monty Pythoners John Cleese and Michael Palin (Search For The Holy Grail, The Meaning Of Life) join OscarĀ(r) winner* Kevin Kline (In & Out) and Jamie Lee Curtis (True Lies) in an entertainment so impeccably timed and executed that Time Magazine hailed it as: "Geniu[a film that] Redefines a great comic tradition!" Four conniving jewel thieves...three Yorkshire terriers...two heaving bosoms and one proper British barrister. It all adds up to "a non-stop barrage of...outrageous plot twists and over-the top performances" (L.A. Weekly) when a girl called Wanda (Curtis) tries to deceive her Nietzche-quoting boyfriend (Kline), an animal-loving hitman (Palin) and an embarrassment-prone counselor (Cleese) out of a fortune in jewels in this hilariously funny farce! *1988: Best Supporting Actor, A Fish Called Wanda
