Movie Description Watch as John Cleese, Michael Palin, Peter Cook, and Rowan Atkinson prove that brilliant comedians have hearts too! THE SECRET POLICEMAN'S BALL, a stunning performance of British comedy, was produced to benefit the human rights organization, Amnesty International. Some Monty Python members join up with equally witty compatriates to perform skits like "Cheese Shop," "Four Yorkshiremen," "The Schoolmaster," and "The Name's The Game." In addition, The Who's famed guitarist Pete Townshend performs an acoustic version of the hit from the rock opera TOMMY -- "Pinball Wizard."
