True, Sellers does pretty much run the movie when he's onscreen. But you gotta admit Slim Pickens did his damdest to try to upstage him.

I didn't realize Stanley Kubrick let Peter Sellers ad lib all three of his roles. That is quite remarkable.<br /><br />Thanks for coming to the Movie Scientist party, and for bringing the mad Dr Strangelove with you. :)Silver Screeningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955048716754142299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073025888325415158.post-49797671144161649722016-02-20T22:18:41.955-05:002016-02-20T22:18:41.955-05:00Short is sweet...and good!

I am ashamed to admit that I did not know Peter Sellers played three roles (I obviously need to talk to more people's mothers), since I have not seen this one yet. I will definitely have to change this.<br /><br />I am extremely curious how he fights his own right hand, too! My exposure to Peter Sellers as mostly come through his Inspector Clouseau, which I really enjoy. <br /><br />Thanks so much for joining in!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
