Do you know who is Peter Sellers? I know it's a stupid question, but hear me. I brought Peter Sellers in a conversation with my friend and he had no idea who I was talking about. Naturally, my friend (being a complete narcissist), assumes that the entire world associates with him. So we made a little bet that not only do people know who Peter Sellers, but he is held in high esteem.
Yes, I know who Peter Sellers. He is best known for her role as bumbling Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther films of the original 70s. Also Herbert Lom, who played the character Dreyfus who was the boss of Clouseau and Nemesis.
Yes, I know who he was. I loved the movie The Pink Panther.
It is among the greatest comic actors of all time. He is best known for The Pink Panther and Dr. Strangelove.
You win the bet ... easily.
I first heard of Peter Sellers when I was 16 and I wanted to see Pink Panter Steve Martin, but my father did not see me until I watched more movies with him first ... and I ended up loving! In fact I ended up liking them so I do not like the new video at all because if I use Peter as Inspector Clouseau in place. [Lol that kind of sucks because I love Steve Martin btw] hehe
Anyway, he is a genius! Murder loved her to death, Lolita, andd other movie where he acts like a child.
I know he played the French inspector (do not know how to spell his name) in the original film Pink Panther. I heard Steve Martin was really not sure how the new movie Pink Panther, because he did not know if he could do justice character.
Peter Sellers is probably one of the greatest comedians that ever graced the big screen. He is best known in his role as bumbling Inspector Clouseau in Pink Panther movies originals (IMHO, it is much better than Steve Martin), and also played in the movie "Murder by death", as Sidney Wang, a parody of fiction Charlie Chan detective novel.
It was an excellent actor who has been able to make fiction and comedy. Movies ranged from "Being There" to "I love you Alice B. Toklas! "," The Party "and" Lolita "and the" Pink Panther "series.
Yep. I know who Peter Sellers. The Pink Panther movies (the far superior original version) and 3 character Dr. Strangelove. Very funny. Your friend has missed the boat on this one.
I think with your friend ... maybe that's a question of age (ie it does not know) or he does not see the type of films of Peter Sellers was in.

It began on radio in the United Kingdom with comedy sketches ... "Goon Show" and made many films in the 50s and beyond, including the original "Pink Panther" series.
When you see the new version with Steve Martin ... he tries to take off Peter vendor acting of this nature.
One of his most memorable moments Golden Globes Award in 1980 for his film "Being There".
Peter Sellers was a comic actor incredible. Personally, I think his best work was in "The mouse that roared, a movie that is too often overlooked.
Yep, the party is like a great movie, but it is probably best known for the films The Pink Panther (everyone has heard of them, just now). I also really liked him in Lolita.
I grew up watching him! It was impressive.
Sellers was a genius.
