5. They'd make a fine double feature.
Two completely different films and characters.

6. The mouse that roared
Staring Peter Sellers as Grand Duchess Gloriana XII, Sellers as Prime Minister Count Rupert Mountjoy, and Sellers as Tully Bascombe.

A classic film that merits a view.

8. They're all great, for the most part. "After The Fox" is fun, too.
I don't know if it is on DVD, but definitely "The Party," if you haven't seen it.

11. One of my favorite lines ever is from that movie:
Dr. Fritz Fassbender (Peter Sellers): My father, the most beloved gynecologist in Vienna, before they took him away on a morals charge for indecent exposure at the State Opera House, said, and I quote:

"Please do not take me away, I will not do it again!!"

Victor Skakapopulis (Woody Allen): Brilliant quote.

Dr. Fritz Fassbender (Peter Sellers): He was a brilliant pervert.

15. The magic Christian sounds interesting ....
Wicked British satire stars Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr as the world's richest man, Sir Guy Grand, and his adopted son. Together, they set out to prove the inherent greed of Mankind. Music by Badfinger and Paul McCartney. The cast includes Christopher Lee, Spike Milligan, Raquel Welch, and Yul Brynner in drag singing "Mad About the Boy."
