Following the death of his benefactor, simple-minded, illiterate gardener Peter Sellers finds himself thrust into the limelight when his banal remarks are taken as profound philosophical insights and he swiftly becomes the toast of the political establishment..
Featuring a career-best performance by Oscar nominated Sellers, Hal Ashby‘s 1980 satire on celebrity and politics seems even more relevant with each passing year.
