Reilly's face, as he hears Massetto's X-rated confession one night, is a perfect example of how listening is equally as important in acting as talking. The actors are a vaudeville troupe of broad types, played to the hilt. The grin that freezes on his face when some nun grinds into his pelvis shows both terror and arousal, simultaneously. Introducing a man into a mostly-female environment throws everything out of whack (shades of " The Beguiled"). Massetto does his best to keep up with his new gardening tasks, but it's not easy when nun after nun barges into his personal space. After Massetto and Father Tommasso meet by chance in the forest, Tommasso-always slightly intoxicated-offers Massetto safe harbor at the convent, but only if Massetto pretends he is a deaf mute.
Massetto fled his former situation because he was sleeping with the mistress of the house (a brilliantly deadpan Lauren Weedman), and the affair was discovered by her warrior husband ( Nick Offerman), a violent man who rants so obsessively about "the Guelphs" that even the chainmail-wearing guards (one of whom is played by Adam Pally, a funny sight in and of itself) roll their eyes. Reilly) run the convent-barely-and into this hothouse cloister comes Massetto ( Dave Franco), a young guy on the run.
Sister Marea ( Molly Shannon) and Father Tommasso ( John C. The opening sequence is like " Mean Girls," the Dark Ages years, with three bitchy nuns-Alessandra ( Alison Brie), Genevra ( Kate Micucci), and Fernanda ( Aubrey Plaza, who also produced the film)-eye-rolling over laundry duties, snarking at one another, screaming "You fucking pervert!" at a leering handyman.
