The Two Missionaries

1974 · 89 min

A cheerful, knockabout buddy comedy full of slapstick brawls and easygoing charm, perfect for a relaxed watch.

Tagline: Those trinity twins tangle with the twisted truth!
Overview: Two missionaries come into conflict with the authorities when they turn their missionary into a parrot farm. The Bishop of Maracaibo calls them his 'black sheep' and the Monsignore has been called to check on their behavior. Like usual, our heroes help the poor to defend themselves and provoke some funny fist fights in the process.
