BEFORE: OK, so it's only tangentially related to religion, but topically I'm grasping at straws. You try stringing over 700 movies together, so that each one has something in common with the one before it and the one after it...
THE PLOT: Brian and Charlie work for a gangster. When their boss sets them up to be killed, they steal the money for themselves, but when their escape doesn't go to plan, they have to seek refuge in a Nuns' teacher training school.
AFTER: Essentially it's a revamp of "Some Like It Hot", and I think I'd seen bits of it before, but never the whole thing. Another slapstick farce, with unbelievable bits, like the ability of two men, one extra burly, to disguise themselves as nuns. And of course the plot hinges on a character's near-sightedness and her inability to find her glasses...
Amusing but not really laugh-out-loud funny.
Starring Eric Idle (last seen in "Hollywood Homicide"), Robbie Coltrane (last seen in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix").
RATING: 5 out of 10 meat cleavers
