After the Fox

MGM (Video & DVD), 2002
So after the fox, after the fox, off to the hunt with chains and locks
Latter films with Peter Sellers were minimal on story, but After the Fox is an incredibly funny film with wit and humor, gags and a really great cast. Sellers plays Aldo Venucci who takes on the task of smuggling the Gold of Cairo into Italy. This movie is terrific, ...
Lolita

Shelley Winters
Warner Home Video, 2007
A humorous look at a very human obsession...
The opening scene of `Lolita' is flawless, utterly flawless. In fact, it may be one of my favorite movie sequences of all time, flaunting one of my favorite supporting performances of all time; Peter Sellers' Clare Quincy. Sellers marvelously uses his wit and humor ...
XXX - State of the Union (Widescreen Edition)

Great
I have to say it. Better Than The Original. More action, cool tech and a brand new XXX. The story was also very captivating.
The Ladykillers
Alec Guinness

Cecil Parker
Starz / Anchor Bay, 2002
...humor of the finest kind
There is only one "The Ladykillers" and this is the British one from 1955 lensed by Alexander Mackendrick. It is definitely not the one remade in 2004 by Ethan and Joel Coen! A charming and well worth watching criminal comedy of its best, with marker jokes, witty ...
The Pink Panther Strikes Again

Herbert Lom

The Pink Panther Strikes Again
The fourth installment in Edwards's riotous Pink Panther series revolves, like the other spy-movie spoofs, around the ingenious comic talents of Sellers, whose klutzy Clouseau is hilariously straight-faced and pratfall-prone. Lom hams it up as master villain Dreyfuss, ...
The World of Henry Orient
Peter Sellers,
Paula Prentiss
MGM (Video & DVD), 2002
Loved it Then, Love it Now
It was my favorite movie when I was about 11, not really for Peter Sellers, but for the girls and mostly Manhattan. From the first time I saw that movie growing up in a small North Carolina town, I knew that one day I would live in Manhattan. So after high school I ...
What's New Pussycat
Peter Sellers,
Peter O'Toole
MGM (Video & DVD), 2005
Ridiculous. Ridiculous and Enchanting.
This film is RI-DICULOUS and yes, doesn't contain much substance and goes off the deep end at the end and is impossibly silly. BUT... I really love it. I'm a devoted fan of Romy Schneider and quite like Peter O'Toole. And I had heard of some of the other actors but ...
Casino Royale
Peter Sellers,
Woody Allen
MGM (Video & DVD), 2002
A classic spoof which improves with age!
`Casino Royale', the original 1960's version is one of those movies which seems to improve with age. I can recall reviews at the time of its release saying that its primary failing was that it parodied a genre, the James Bond movies, which were themselves a parody of ...
The Magic Christian
Peter Sellers,
Ringo Starr
Republic Pictures, 2003
No, no....I only want the nose.
McGrath's film adaptation differs considerably Southern's novel. Relocated to London in the 1960s, it introduces an orphan whom Sir Guy Grand picks up in a park and on a whim, decides to adopt. The role was written with Ringo Starr (who plays it) in mind. The Magic ...
Revenge of the Pink Panther
Peter Sellers,
Herbert Lom
MGM (Video & DVD), 2006
Perfected Clouseau
Forget about the fact that this is one of the funniest, laugh out loud movies ever made for a moment. Take a close look at Peter Sellers in this film as the perfected character of Inspector Clouseau shines through. Far from the self-parodying, stale performances that ...
Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Peter Sellers,
George C. Scott
Sony Pictures, 2004
Daring at the time
I remember watching this movie near the end of the Cold War and wondering just how daring the film was when it came out back in the mid-sixties. Probably made a lot of people nervous because the prospect of something like this occuring was probably very much in the ...
The Pink Panther
David Niven
, Peter Sellers
MGM (Video & DVD), 2006
The Pink Panther
The great Blake Edwards inaugurated the farcical "Panther" series in 1964 with this zesty comedy caper starring David Niven as a covetous, Cary Grant-like jewel thief. But it was Peter Sellers's brilliant performance as clumsy Inspector Clouseau--the very opposite of ...
A Shot in the Dark
Peter Sellers,
Elke Sommer
MGM (Video & DVD), 2006
A Shot in the Dark
Bearing all the hilarious hallmarks of Edwards's Pink Panther films, this second entry in the popular series finds pratfall artist Sellers tumbling into a pond, warding off nocturnal judo attacks from assistant Kato (Burt Kwouk), and trying to bed the woman literally ...

The Party

Very Funny
Hilariously funny! The funniest scenes are those that don't even have any dialog. I highly recommend this very funny movie. I had never seen this movie. It is hilarious!
