Sex Mission

Given the differences between martial-law Poland and the States, Juliusz Machulski may go down in history as the only director who p erformed a miracle by giving both Poles and Americans something to laugh about in 1985, which was this very Sex Mission. Once, he de scribed himself as not very funny in real life and shy by nature, which flies in the face of this track record in comedy film-making . With Sex Mission, Va Banque and its sequel, topped with Kiler and The Kiler Duo under his belt, Juliusz Machulski reigns supreme a s the post-war Polish king of film comedy, to say nothing of his other major features in a different vein.
