This week we continue our show block of dramatic films starring comedic actors.

Mr. Church is a 2016 film based on the short story “The Cook Who Came To Live With Us” by Susan McMartin.

Mr. Church tells the story of Charlie Brooks and her life with her family cook Mr. Church who is hired to cook for her and her dying mother after her mother’s lover dies. 

That’s…it. That’s the movie. That’s the tale. We’re going to be honest here; we want to thank Eddie Murphy for the hernia he suffered carrying this entire film.
