Silly, juvenile fun
Innocent, clumsy but lovable Peter Sellers is out of his element among a group of phony, pretentious Beverly Hills fools. He is victim to circumstance, technology and some silly customs that are foreign to his experience. The result is sometimes hilarious.

Okay, first of all, just about everyone in this film is stupid. This is 2020 and most of us realize that Indian Americans are just as diverse as anyone else – ranging from brilliant and socially adept to the opposite of the spectrum. I realize this is dated and can be seen as offensive. I think the point of his character being Indian is that he is naive to some of the useless and ridiculous customs of the time as well as subtle changes in the culture. I don’t think it was intended to be hurtful. I mean the man us the only likeable character in the movie! He isn’t stupid, gauche or uncivilized. I think most of us would feel out of place and nervous in such a settimg. I do think it is pointless to portray the character as any race and am sorry people find it offensive. I like the character and don’t think he represents anything but sincere and innocent. Hey, he gets the girl, right?

On a lighter note the film features murderess Claudine Longet who got less than a month in jail for killing her lover. Talk about something to be enraged about! On top of that she can’t act or sing!Read More
