Double bill of feature films of Rowan Atkinson's
love-him-or-loathe-him Chaplinesque clod. Starting off proceedings
is 'Bean The Movie' (1997), in which Mr Bean (-Atkinson) has
obtained a job as an attendant at the National Gallery in London.
He enjoys the protection of the chairman, but the gallery's
governors are keen to be rid of him. When the Grierson Gallery in
Los Angeles asks for an expert to give a speech on the
recently-purchased painting of Whistler's mother, Bean is quickly
despatched. On his arrival in America he begins wreaking havoc in
the art world. In 'Mr Bean's Holiday' (2007), Mr Bean has won a
church fete raffle's top prize, consisting of a trip to France. A
hopeful and starry-eyed Bean boards the Eurostar and hits 'Gay
Paree' like a ton of rubble. The language barrier predictably
causes our hero no end of grief until he meets Emil, a Russian
director on his way to judge at Cannes. Emil agrees to film Bean
climbing aboard his train to the south and his dream vacation - a
move that causes Emil to miss the train himself. Bean comforts
Stephan, Emil's son, who DID make it aboard, by trying to entertain
him. Little does Bean know he's accompanying a child that's been
reported kidnapped and that he himself fits the description of the
prime suspect. Bean eventually must go to Cannes himself to try and
sort out the mess but he's only gone and left his wallet and travel
documents behind! The trip to Cannes provides more opportunity for
confusion as Bean ends up in the middle of a production being shot
by the bigheaded director Carson Clay. At Cannes, after hitching a
ride with the lovely Sabine - an actress in the film - Bean and
Stephan end up, well, 'brightening up' the premiere of Clay's film.
