In
the seedy world of Rock bars and booze cans Punch (nicknamed Atlas
because of his Greek decent) is known as a pint-sized bouncer with
a big reputation. To Judy, who’s notorious for misreading
people, he’s a Turkish musician with the gentle demeanor of
a Teddy Bear. Add a philandering Professor, a jailed philosophizing
bar owner, a minister that can read the scriptures like Marilyn
Monroe and you have Punch and Judy, a tale of love and misunderstanding.
Starring Pierre Brault and Brigitte Robinson as well as
versatile actor Pat McKenna (Traders, Red Green Show), and acclaimed
actor Graham Greene (Dances With Wolves, Thunderheart). Screened
at the World of Comedy International Film Festival 2003 in Toronto
