“The Penguin Lessons” is based on a true story about Tom Michell (Steve Coogan), a British teacher at a private boarding school in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1976. Tom rescues a penguin from an oil spill on a beach. Then the fun begins. Peter Cattaneo (Oscar nominee, director, “The Full Monty”) directs. The supporting cast is great, including Jonathan Pryce. Paul Willistein of Lehigh Valley Press reviews the Comedy Drama.
