Party, The (1968, USA) C-99m. SCOPE *** D: Blake Edwards. Starring Peter Sellers, Claudine Longet, Buddy Lester, Gavin MacLeod. After two successful PINK PANTHER comedies, director Edwards reteamed with his star Peter Sellers and delivered this priceless comedy. A bumbling Indian extra is mistakenly invited to a bombastic party at a film producer's villa and wreaks unintentional havoc there. As much a time capsule as it is a Sellers one-man-show. None other than him could have made this work. Score by Henry Mancini, photographed by Lucien Ballard.
