Michael Palin wrote and starred in this whimsical and veddy British tale of an earnest Anglican priest set to the task of bringing young London prostitutes to salvation. Maggie Smith singlehandedly saves this peculiar fantasy as a lonely baroness interested in the cause, bringing connection in a work where there was little before. It's interesting for fans of British culture.
