"Sirens" (title refers to Homer's sirens) tells of a young church official who is dispatched to visit a painter at his remote Aussie studio/estate to dissuade him from showing a painting of a nude on a cross. Hugh Grant plays the minister who, with his wife, encounters four beautiful models (one is the artist's wife) who bemuse him with their nude romps and sensual ways. Moreover, he's distressed by his wife's apparent interest in the unabashed frolicking. "Sirens" is a not too serious and somewhat sensual film with a thin plot. The film's appeal is in the moment-to-moment situations, the shangrila "feel" given to the harsh outback locale, the feminist antics of the bevy of babes, etc. Some will find the film tedious while others will be captivated by it's subtle charms.

Sirens is the story of a preacher named Anthony Campion(Hugh Grant) and his wife, Estella (Tara Fitzgerald) who are sent to investigate Normal Lindsay (Sam Neill),an artist who has been accused of painting lewd pictures. They find the artist living with his wife and three beautiful models, none of whom have any problem with nudity.

Although shocked at first, Anthony and Estella find themselves being seduced by the beauty and sensuality around them and they are both changed forever by the visit.

This is a sexy movie that isn't about the sex. It is filled with sweeping vistas, and has a wonderful score. It's a great movie to sit with your significant other and watch!

Reverend Anthony Campion (Hugh Grant) and his uptight wife Estella (Tara Fitzgerald) are sent to rural Australia to talk reclusive eccentric artist Norman Lindsay (Sam Neill) into toning down his shocking paintings. There they find Lindsay's sexually progressive models and his family. Like the sirens of old, the couple could be pulled into rocky shores.

Everything works in this charming little film. Hugh Grant is perfect as the bumbly fumbly embarrassed reverend. Tara Fitzgerald is wonderful as a volcano ready to blow. There is a wonderful light airy feel to the movie. Elle Macpherson does a confident model very well. It also marks a beautiful Portia de Rossi's first big movie as the shy model who doesn't do nudes.
