Country: GB
Technical: col/scope 86m
Director: Richard Loncraine
Cast: Michael Palin, Maggie Smith, Michael Hordern, Trevor Howard
Synopsis:
A missionary returns to Europe and finds it hard to adapt to its sense of decorum, as he provides shelter for fallen women in London's East End.
Review:
An amusing oddity, rather like an extended Ripping Yarn (BBC). As usual with Handmade Films the supporting cast is great, the production authentic looking down to its grimier aspects.
