The minister's wife is troubled also, and has to deal with latent sexual urges while trying to remain loyal to her husband.
Reviews:
"This film was funny and inspiring, with beautiful music by Rachel Portman (the "only" female composer in films in the "top ten" almost all male composer lists). Lots in this film will stay with you; especially the scenes with Australian animals and waters and snakes. Great philosophical and comedic themes as well. Bears watching a number of times to "get it all." Thanks to everyone concerned for making this wonderful and funny film; first time I've smiled in a long time!" Written by ctodd1000 via IMDb.com
"This is supposed to be a comedy but I found myself transfixed by the stunning cinematography and beautiful bodies more than anything else. Sam Neill's bevy of beautiful nude models, headed by Elle Macpherson, nearly steal the show. Hugh Grant is surprisingly convincing in his role as the prudish minister and Tara Fitzgerald is equally convincing as his almost-as-prudish wife. The are a few funny moments in this film involving the models' interactions with Grant and Fitzgerald." Written by 4dtvman via IMDb.com
"Oh, how I love this movie!
It shows us how under the thin veneer of hypocrisy, religiousness, and enmity against all physical lies what God gave us to enjoy: a body to experience happiness, laughter, desire, sensuality, lust, and sexuality. And no institutions (like the Christian church in this film) have the right nor - in the long run - the capability to prevent people from finding out this fundamental truth.
Watching this movie without an open mind towards sex or a joyful sense of humor surely will be annoying. So fundamentalist Christians and other prudes shouldn't bother. The rest of the audience (hopefully the majority) can expect a solid performance of the entire ensemble and many moments that make you smile and sometimes downright happy."

"Grab your boyfriend or girlfriend and enjoy this little erotic gem of a movie about a painter and his small commune of 'sirens' and the church envoy who is sent to investigate exactly what moves this man and what the little group is up to. Hugh Grant is very good as the uptight clergyman, and Tara Fitzgerald is wonderful as a woman experiencing sexual reawakening. Elle gives a subtle surprising performance as the chief 'siren', kudos for stocking an extra 20 pounds for this role, rubenesque an all, she looks delightful. A nice leisurely wintery afternoon watch. 7/10" Written by surfandski via IMDb.com
