Publisher's Synopsis
A triple bill of Mr Bean comedies. In 'Bean - The Ultimate Disaster Movie' (1997), Mr Bean (Rowan 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. 'Happy Birthday Mr Bean' (1990), is a collection of five birthday-themed excerpts, taken from both the original and animated series of Rowan Atkinson's slapstick comedy, released to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the series. The episodes are: 'The Restaurant' (from 'The Return of Mr Bean'), 'Birthday Bear', 'The Disco' (from 'Mr Bean Goes to Town'), 'Dinner for Two', 'The Funfair' (from 'Mind the Baby Mr Bean') and 'The Restaurant'. Finally, 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 (Karel Roden), 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 (Max Baldry), 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!
