Christopher Monger

Monger's directorial breakthrough was the feelgood yarn The Englishman Who Went Up A Hill But Came Down A Mountain.

The romantic comedy, starring the ever-reliable Hugh Grant and Tara Fitzgerald, proved to be a moderate box office hit.

Monger's first feature Voice Over in 1983 was followed by the higher profile Waiting for the Light starring Shirley MacClaine and Louis Guzzo.

Next came gender-bender comedy Just Like A Woman starring Julie Walters.

Recent film work includes the lacklustre Girl From Rio starring Hugh Laurie, which Monger wrote and directed.
